The HRA Operations Associate will assist members in navigating healthcare coverage, troubleshooting issues, and managing enrollment applications. They are responsible for providing seamless support via phone and email while documenting all interactions in Zendesk.
Most people don't think twice about going to the doctor. But for over 85 million uninsured and underinsured Americans — the cashiers, drivers, home health aides, and construction workers who keep this country running — getting care is complicated, expensive, and often out of reach.
Vitable is the health benefits platform designed for every worker. We make it easy for employers to offer real, high-quality healthcare to their teams — not watered-down coverage, but benefits that actually work. It's better for employees. It's smarter for employers. And it matters.
We're a small, passionate team moving fast and solving a problem that genuinely deserves solving. If you're looking for a place where your work has a tangible impact on real people's lives, you've found it.
The Role
Healthcare is confusing. Insurance is confusing. For many people, it's one of the most stressful systems they'll ever have to navigate.
Our HRA Operations Associates make it easier.
We are hiring seasonal for Q4 (2-3 month contract) with two "shifts" available depending on your location.
From helping someone understand their coverage to troubleshooting an issue or guiding them through enrollment, you'll play an important role in making sure every member feels informed, supported, and cared for. You'll own each interaction from start to finish — working directly with carriers, answering benefit questions, resolving problems, and ensuring every customer has a seamless experience.
We're looking for licensed insurance professionals who combine technical expertise with genuine empathy — people who know how to simplify complex information, stay calm under pressure, and treat every member like a human being, not a ticket number.
If you're someone who enjoys solving problems, takes pride in doing things right, and wants your work to have a meaningful impact on people's lives, we'd love to meet you.
Your day to day:
Provide customers a seamless support experience by phone and email
Submit applications to the carrier and own them through to approval
Help customers navigate the healthcare system and understand their options
Quickly identify and resolve issues when transactions or experiences don't go as planned
Document every phone call and email with members in Zendesk
Answer qualifying and benefit-specific questions
Provide scheduled phone and email coverage for our members
Required experience:
Active, resident-state health & life insurance license
Direct experience enrolling individuals through Healthcare.gov or a state-based exchange (e.g., Covered California) — this isn't general insurance sales experience, it's hands-on marketplace enrollment
Background in a customer support or member-services environment (call center, help desk, or similar) — this is a service role first, not a sales role
What we'll assess in the interview process:
Clear, effective communication, verbal and written
Patience, empathy, and composure under stress
Ability to apply insurance expertise to guide someone through signing up for coverage
Comfort working confidently inside a support ticketing platform
Preferred, not required:
Licensed in multiple states (and if not, licensed in one state and open to getting more)
Fluent bilingual (Spanish especially)
Experience with Zendesk or a comparable support platform
What you're made of:
Mission-driven and motivated by impact
Someone who gets things done, and does it well
Curious, thoughtful, and clear on your "why"
A self-starter who figures things out
Empathetic, honest, and genuinely cares about others
Collaborative, but confident working independently
HIRING FOR TWO SHIFTS depending on location:
Shift A: 9:00 AM – 3:00 PM EST
Shift B: 3:00 PM – 9:00 PM EST
5 days a week (No weekend coverage)
We believe in taking care of the people who take care of our members. Here's what that looks like:
100% Silver Plan medical coverage — plus dental and vision
Vitable Primary Care membership — the same care we give our members, yours too
401(k) and life insurance
Unlimited PTO — and we actually mean it
Remote-first — work from wherever you do your best thinking
MacBook and home office setup stipend — the gear you need to do great work
Competitive equity — you're building something real, you should own a piece of it
We don't have a big corporate machine behind us. What we have is a clear mission, a lot of heart, and a deep sense of urgency about the problem we're solving. That means we move fast, figure things out, and hold ourselves to a high bar — not because someone's watching, but because we care.
You'll thrive here if you're the kind of person who:
Feels personally connected to making healthcare more accessible
Gets energized by building, not just maintaining
Can navigate ambiguity without losing momentum
Does the unglamorous work when it needs doing — and does it well
Asks for help when you need it and offers it when you see someone else does
Cares about the details, but keeps sight of the bigger picture
We're a team that shows up for each other. We celebrate wins together, work through hard problems together, and genuinely like each other. If something feels off, we say so. If someone's struggling, we notice.
No egos. No jerks. Just good humans doing meaningful work — and having fun doing it.
The people we serve are diverse — and our team should be too. We're committed to building a workplace where different backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives aren't just welcomed, they're essential to the work.
Vitable is an equal opportunity employer. We don't hire to check boxes. We hire people who care about what we're building and bring something real to the table.
If this role excites you but you don't meet every requirement on the list, please apply anyway. We mean that.
