Who We Are
Our Founder
Simon Sabat, B.Sc.
Founder & President
A driving force in the benefits industry for more than 30 years, Simon founded The Consulting House in 1985 after recognizing the large gap in expertise and service between large corporations and small- to medium-sized companies. Simon believed that every company, big or small, deserves superior service and a high return on their benefit dollars.
Simon pioneered excellence in the design, implementation and management of enhanced and cost-effective benefits and Pensions programs. The Consulting House is based on his business philosophy to give all clients sound, competent advice that yields immediate and sustainable enhancements as well as cost reductions in their benefit programs.
Simon’s groundbreaking strategies have been used by leading organizations across all segments of the business world, and that have been profiled in Benefits Canada and The Globe and Mail.
Simon’s insight and expertise have also been featured in a number of articles outlining leading-edge benefits strategies and their impact on corporations. Some articles include “Disabling premiums” (Benefits Canada), “More comments on taxable benefits” (The Globe & Mail), and “Is it time to scrap STD?”(Benefits Canada).
Over the years, he has amassed a long list of clients in both the public and private sectors in Canada, the U.S. and abroad. In addition to a B.Sc. degree from McMaster University, Simon has successfully completed many professional and employee benefits courses. Simon’s depth of benefit knowledge, financial expertise, hard work and mentoring created a rock-solid foundation for The Consulting House that continues to inspire our success every day
