HR Assistant

Located in Asheville, NC

Salary: $18/hr to $20/hr DOE

HR Assistant | West Asheville | $18/hr–$20/hr
There's a well-established West Asheville company that's been part of this community for years — and they're growing. With that growth comes a need for someone who can help keep the people side of the business running smoothly. That's where you come in.
This is a full HR support role where no two days look exactly the same. You'll be the person employees turn to when they have questions, the one who makes sure new hires feel welcomed and set up for success, and the behind-the-scenes force keeping payroll and HR paperwork accurate and on time. If you're someone who genuinely likes helping people and loves a good spreadsheet, this might be your sweet spot.
What you'll be doing:

Onboarding new hires and handling the paperwork that comes with it — new hires, terminations, transfers, address changes, tax updates
Submitting weekly timekeeping for temporary employees and serving as the point of contact with staffing agencies
Completing FMLA and short-term disability paperwork
Writing and distributing the company newsletter (yes, really — if you like to write, even better)
Supporting the Safety Committee as secretary and coordinating monthly safety training materials
Being a go-to resource for employees with day-to-day HR questions
Providing administrative support to the HR Manager

What you bring:

Some experience in HR, payroll, or an administrative support role
Comfort with Microsoft Office — Access experience is a real plus
Familiarity with payroll software or HR systems
A basic understanding of labor laws
Strong organizational habits and clear communication
The ability to work independently, stay proactive, and handle shifting priorities without losing your footing

Schedule & pay:
Monday–Friday, 8am–5pm, with occasional flexibility needed. Pay is $18–$20/hr depending on experience.
Achievement-oriented -- enjoys taking on challenges, even if they might fail
Autonomous/Independent -- enjoys working with little direction
