The Role
As a Benefits Consultant, you will own and drive health insurance sales across our Platform (direct employer clients) and Embed (integrated partner) channels. Health insurance is a core pillar of our benefits proposition, and this role sits at the centre of how we sell, position and grow it across multiple markets.
This is a high-impact, sales-focused role at the intersection of insurance, partnerships and market growth. You'll sell tailored health insurance solutions in collaboration with our partners, targeting their corporate client bases across the EEA, UK and selected international markets. From campaign design through to pricing, proposal delivery, client engagement and go-live, you'll drive the process and collaborate closely with our Benefits, Customer Success, Embed, Expansions and Product teams.
You'll also play a key role in shaping our health insurance proposition as we expand into new markets — researching providers, adapting products to local demands, and ensuring every offering is competitive and commercially impactful. As we scale, you'll help define the playbook for how Kota sells health insurance globally.
