Member Experience (MX) Agent - Contract

The Role:

Stride Health empowers self-employed workers to do the work they love by giving them the tools to take control of their physical and financial well-being.

We are looking for licensed insurance agents to help our members navigate the benefits industry with a high-touch, customer-centric experience. This position will be a temporary contractor position that will join our Member Experience Team during our busy open enrollment season.

Stride is a digital-first benefits platform. Members can sign up for insurance directly on our website but at times will need expert guidance. In this position, you'll be our member’s first point of contact when they reach out for support. Your goal will be to leverage your insurance knowledge to help our members find the best option for their unique needs. The majority of your day will be spent on the phone assisting members with their insurance enrollments and becoming an expert on the Stride experience.

Responsibilities include but are not limited to:

• Providing customers a seamless support experience
• Following up with customers after enrollment in coverage to ensure they derive continued value from their investment in health, dental, or vision coverage
• Helping customers navigate the healthcare system (harnessing the power of Stride’s proprietary tools)
• Quickly identifying and resolving issues for customers when transactions and experiences don’t go exactly as planned
• Comprehensively documenting phone calls and emails with members in Zendesk
• Answering qualifying and benefit specific questions
• Providing phone and email coverage for our members as scheduled
