About Walrus

Benefits expertise, from the inside out.

A modern group benefits & group retirement consulting firm built for employers who want more than a renewal spreadsheet and a once-a-year meeting.

We combine deep industry background with smart technology and a service-first mentality — to help organizations design, manage, and optimize benefits programs that actually work for their people and their budget.

Our story

Built by insiders who know how the game is played.

Walrus Benefits was built by Jonathan Guiang and Callum Johnson after years on the inside of a leading insurance provider, working in Underwriting and Account Executive roles.

We didn't just support benefits programs — we priced them, negotiated them, and defended them. We understand:

→How risk is evaluated and margins are built
→What truly drives renewal increases
→Where plans quietly lose efficiency
→How data can be leveraged to control long-term cost

We launched Walrus Benefits to bring that insider knowledge to the employer's side of the table.
