→ Experience in staffing, a PEO or another high-volume, weekly-pay environment

→ Strong FLSA knowledge, plus exposure to ACA, FMLA, COBRA, 401(k) and benefits renewals

→ High EQ, a builder's mindset and comfort using technology and AI to multiply a small team

→ CPP or FPC preferred; PHR or SPHR a plus


What we offer:

→ Competitive base salary plus an annual bonus

→ Hybrid schedule in Plano, Texas, three days in office

→ The chance to design a function from the ground up at a company that's building
