Title

Payroll & Benefits Specialist

Salary

$60,000-$70,000

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

  • This Payroll & Benefits Specialist role is far from transactional—you’ll be trusted to own the function and help shape how payroll and benefits evolve as the company continues to grow.
  • The Payroll & Benefits Specialist will step into a high-impact role supporting a multi-state workforce, giving you exposure and experience that goes beyond a typical single-location environment.
  • You’ll join a team that values longevity and stability—people stay here, and that says a lot about the culture and leadership.
  • Leadership is hands-off but supportive—you’ll have the autonomy to run with ideas while still having guidance when you need it.
  • Flexibility is built into the culture – offering a hybrid schedule and realistic expectations around workload.
  • Strong benefits package including:
    • 401(k) with company match
    • Comprehensive health, dental, and vision coverage
    • Bonus potential long-term career growth
  • The Payroll & Benefits Specialist will have the opportunity to drive process improvements, streamline systems, and create efficiencies—your input will truly matter.
Key Responsibilities

  • Process all new hire paperwork
  • Administer employee benefits programs including health, retirement, and leave management
  • Serve as the primary point of contact for employee payroll and benefits questions
  • Enter payroll deductions for any benefits, child support, and wage garnishments

Qualifications

  • 3 years of experience in benefits administration
  • Strong knowledge of payroll systems and benefits processes
