About the Role:
The Implementation Specialist manages the end-to-end onboarding experience for 401(k) plans on the Gusto platform, spanning both new plan implementations and conversions from existing retirement plan providers. Depending on team assignment, this role guides plan sponsors and administrators through either a new plan setup or a full conversion lifecycle (from initial handoff through asset transfer, data reconciliation, and first contribution). The ideal candidate is proactive, organized, and experienced in client-facing implementation — comfortable managing a high-volume book of business, maintaining meticulous attention to detail, and confidently guiding employers through complex, multi-step processes. They work exclusively with plan sponsors and administrators and bring both operational rigor and a client-first mindset to every interaction.
About the Team:
The Retirement Onboarding team oversees two of the most consequential moments in a client's journey with Gusto 401(k): launching a brand-new plan and transitioning an existing one to a new provider. The New Plans pod designs a seamless implementation experience from day one, instilling trust and laying the foundation for long-term client success. The Conversion pod handles operationally complex asset transfers with precision, ensuring sponsors and administrators feel supported at every step and that assets move accurately and on time. Across both, we combine operational excellence with a client-first approach.
Gusto has physical office spaces in Denver, San Francisco, and New York City. Employees who are based in those locations will be expected to work from the office on designated days approximately 2-3 days per week (or more depending on role). The same office expectations apply to all Symmetry roles, Gusto's subsidiary, whose physical office is in Scottsdale.
Note: The San Francisco office expectations encompass both the San Francisco and San Jose metro areas.
When approved to work from a location other than a Gusto office, a secure, reliable, and consistent internet connection is required. This includes non-office days for hybrid employees.
Our customers come from all walks of life and so do we. We hire great people from a wide variety of backgrounds, not just because it's the right thing to do, but because it makes our company stronger. If you share our values and our enthusiasm for small businesses, you will find a home at Gusto.
