How can we help?
Jason Gard
CEO
**J Gard Benefit Consultants was founded in August 2021 by Jason Gard and co-founders Pam Vincent and Paola Becerril. Jason, considered to be one of the top experts in employee benefits, self-funding and ACA compliance, brings over 28 years of experience to the table. Our team currently partners with multiple clients on a national level. Our niche is providing customized solutions and concierge services to our clients and their employees.
At J Gard Benefits we adopt a holistic approach to evaluate our clients’ individual needs. We believe employee benefits are integral to every aspect of any business, making it essential to consider all related operations comprehensively. From our initial meeting with a client, our focus is clear:
“How can we support you?”
We listen carefully to thoroughly understand your organization’s needs and objectives. To establish a productive partnership, we aim to familiarize ourselves with your company culture, specific challenges, infrastructure, financial objectives, and how these factors influence your approach to employee benefits. Beyond healthcare considerations, we explore potential solutions encompassing payroll, human resources, human capital management, risk management, retirement planning, automation, and more. This holistic approach ensures that we can offer comprehensive support tailored to your organization’s unique requirements.
Building the foundation for our growth partnership begins with that very first meeting with continued collaboration built on industry knowledge, hard work, integrity, and responsiveness. It is our goal to add value to our client’s businesses by bringing solutions that work for them and their employees. Let us ‘run your benefits so you can focus on running your business’.
