Payroll & Benefits Specialist
Salary: $70,000-$100,000 + bonus

Why This Opportunity Stands Out
Our client is a growing, mission-driven manufacturing organization that believes in making a positive impact on people, communities, and the planet. This is an opportunity to join a company built on authenticity, compassion, and doing the right thing while supporting the employees who make it all happen.

• Make an impact: Take ownership of payroll compliance, benefits administration, and employee leave programs while helping ensure employees feel supported and informed.
• Be more than a number: Join a small, collaborative HR team where your ideas matter and you can contribute beyond a traditional payroll role.
• Enjoy variety: Work across benefits, payroll, leave management, compliance, and general HR support in a dynamic manufacturing environment.
• Join a purpose-driven organization: Be part of a company focused on quality, responsible sourcing, employee well-being, and making a difference.
• Grow your expertise: Take the lead on process improvements, employee education, and compliance initiatives while partnering with HR, Accounting, and outside vendors.
• Opportunity for growth: Be involved in the strategy and building/creating of processes. Our client anticipates their business to continue expanding, which also opens up promotion opportunities.
• Flexibility: Build trust with you manager and have the opportunity to work from home on occasion.

Key Responsibilities

• Own benefits administration: Manage medical, dental, vision, life, disability, HSA/FSA, and retirement benefits, including open enrollment, employee questions, vendor relationships, and deduction audits.
• Support payroll accuracy and compliance: Review benefit deductions, garnishments, taxable benefits, and employee compensation records while partnering with Accounting to resolve discrepancies and maintain accurate documentation.
• Manage employee leaves: Administer FMLA, ADA, parental leave, workers' compensation, and other leave programs, ensuring proper documentation, eligibility tracking, and compliance.
• Contribute to HR operations: Serve as a trusted resource for employee questions, maintain accurate HRIS records, and identify opportunities to streamline processes and improve the employee experience.

Qualifications

• Experience in payroll, benefits administration, human resources, or a related field, with a strong understanding of employment regulations and compliance.
• Excellent attention to detail, organizational skills, analytical abilities, and a commitment to handling confidential information with professionalism.
