HR & Payroll Consultant

Here at TogetHR Consulting, we believe in creating a balanced and supportive HR relationship between employees and management. As an HR & Payroll Consultant, you will manage a portfolio of assigned clients and provide a wide range of HR services. These may include recruiting, leading employee orientations, processing new hires, maintaining employee files, ensuring compliance with employment laws, updating employee handbooks, and supporting benefits, compensation, safety, and health programs. Additional client requests may also arise.

Your payroll responsibilities may include setting up new clients in payroll software, overseeing scheduled payroll processing with clear timelines and deadlines, balancing benefit deductions, preparing tax reports, and ensuring compliance with payroll regulations.

No two days will be the same. Your work will shift based on the clients you support and the projects you manage. Each day brings new challenges and opportunities to prioritize evolving client needs. This dynamic environment is one of the many reasons we love working with people—our clients and the TogetHR team.

A qualified candidate must be able to work independently and within a team dynamic, depending on the project/task assigned, plus be set-up to work from a home office for virtual client meetings that may take place. Must be a self-starter, approachable and friendly, easy for clients to interact with, listens, detail-oriented, and clearly communicate. Must be available during normal business hours.
