Embedded within the Product Filing & Operations organization, this role supports Employee Benefits products primarily, with additional support across Protection and Retirement lines as needed.

All employees are encouraged to protect their overall wellbeing by engaging in ProHealth Rewards, Protective’s platform to improve wellbeing while earning cash rewards.

Advise on filing strategy, sequencing, and state prioritization in partnership with filing leadership and consulting resources when applicable.

Identify legal and regulatory risks early in the product development lifecycle to support informed product design and rollout decisions. Collaborate with filing operations to ensure regulatory submissions align with approved pricing, plan design, and system configuration. Serve as an internal subject matter expert on product filing legal issues, reducing reliance on external legal escalation.
