What are the responsibilities and job description for the HR Administrator – Client Facing position at HR Value Partners, LLC?
This role is not for everyone. That is intentional.
If you like routine, predictability, and working for a single employer where change is slow, this probably is not your role.
If you like being trusted, staying busy, working across multiple companies, and building real HR judgment early in your career, keep reading.
What this role gives
you
You gain exposure most HR Admins never get:
Instead of supporting one company for years, you will work with multiple clients across different industries, leadership styles, and stages of growth. You will see how HR actually functions in the real world, not just how it looks in one organization.
You build credibility fast:
You are not hidden behind email. You are onsite with clients multiple days per week, interacting with owners, executives, managers, and employees. You develop an "air of confidence" because you are trusted to represent HR Value Partners professionally in real situations.
You learn how HR decisions connect to business realities:
You support experienced HR Generalists and Consultants, participate in audits, onboarding, compliance work, recruiting support, and client projects. You see why decisions are made, not just how paperwork gets processed.
You have a path forward:
HR Value Partners is growing. If you want to develop into an HR Generalist or more senior role over time, this position gives you the experience base to do that. Many people do not get that opportunity in traditional HR Admin roles.
How your work actually looks day-to-day
- Hybrid schedule
- Most Mondays and Fridays are remote
- Most Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays are onsite with clients
- Clients are within a two-hour driving radius of Mount Pleasant, WI
- Some weeks you drive a lot, some weeks very little
- It is normal for multiple clients to reach out in the same day
- Your work blends:
- HRIS and payroll system updates (not processing payroll)
- Offer letters, employee records, compliance documentation
- Recruiting coordination and system updates
- Project tracking, reporting, and follow-through
- Client communication and follow-up
- Various administrative tasks
- You are expected to move quickly, stay organized, and keep things accurate without being micromanaged
What you need to enjoy (or at least accept)
- Driving to client sites up to three days per week
- Switching between different HRIS, payroll, and ATS systems
- Managing multiple priorities without constant direction
- Being the calm, professional presence when clients have questions or need help
- Having full days. This role is busy by design.
What usually frustrates people (and why it is still worth it)
The commute is the biggest challenge. Some client sites are close, others are farther away. If driving feels like wasted time to you, this will not be a fit.
The tradeoff is that:
· Your experience curve accelerates. You gain more exposure, confidence, and professional judgment here than most HR Admin roles provide, and
· You normally work from home two days per week
What helps you succeed here
- Strong attention to detail and consistency
- Ability to complete routine administrative work quickly and accurately
- Comfort learning and using multiple HRIS and payroll systems
- Professional presence and confidence with all levels of an organization
- Strong work ethic and self-motivation
- Clear, professional written and verbal communication
- Pride in producing clean, reliable work
A degree in HR, Business, or a related field and prior HR administrative experience are helpful. HR certification is a plus, not a requirement.
Why HR Value Partners is different
We are not an internal HR department. We are a fractional HR firm that embeds with clients and becomes a trusted extension of their leadership team.
That means:
- More responsibility
- More exposure
- More learning
- More variety
- More trust
It also means you are never alone. You work as part of a team, supported by experienced Generalists and Consultants who value strong administrative partners.
Bottom line
If you want an HR Admin role that:
- Keeps you engaged
- Builds real-world HR experience
- Offers growth as the firm grows, and
- Values your professionalism and consistency
