Emphasize your familiarity with relevant plan administration software like ASC, FT Williams, Datair, or Relius, and your ability to interpret retirement plan provisions accurately to ensure regulatory compliance.
Apply through multiple channels including BTHR Solutions' corporate career page, LinkedIn job postings, and specialized retirement benefits job boards to maximize your application visibility.
Connect with current employees or team members in the retirement benefits or compliance divisions at BTHR Solutions on LinkedIn; open your message with an introduction referencing a recent company update or asking about their experience working on compliance testing for complex plans as an ice breaker.
