Job description

This is an ideal opportunity for an HR professional who feels they've outgrown an administrative HR role and wants to accelerate their development into a strategic, client-facing consultant.

At Workforce Solutions & MBE CPAs, we help business owners, executives, and HR leaders solve real workplace challenges through HR consulting, recruiting, compliance support, and HR technology solutions.

Unlike traditional HR roles focused on a single employer, you'll gain experience supporting a variety of organizations across multiple industries while learning directly from experienced HR consultants and business leaders.

As an affiliate of the MBE CPAs family of companies, we also provide full HR support to more than 250 employees across 19 offices.

Whether you're currently an HR Coordinator, HR Administrator, or HR Generalist, this role offers a unique opportunity to gain hands-on experience across nearly every area of Human Resources while developing into a trusted advisor for clients and business leaders.

If your goal is to become an HR Consultant, HR Business Partner, or HR leader, we'd love to meet you.

Why This Opportunity Is Different

Most HR professionals spend their career supporting one company.

At Workforce Solutions, you'll gain exposure to:

• HR consulting and client advisory services
• Recruiting and talent acquisition
• Employee relations and performance management
• Compliance and employment law
• Compensation and organizational development
• HR technology, automation, and AI tools
• This role offers a clear path for growth into increasingly strategic and client-facing responsibilities.

Potential career progression may include: Associate HR Consultant → HR Consultant → Leadership Opportunities

What Will I Be Doing?

No two days look the same. You'll support both our clients and internal teams through a combination of:

• Employee lifecycle administration
• Benefits and leave administration
• HRIS and compliance management
• Policy and handbook development
• Client consulting projects
• Recruiting and talent initiatives
• Employee relations support
• HR technology and process improvement initiatives

Who Thrives Here?

We're looking for someone who:

• Has the HR experience to hit the ground running
• Loves solving problems and helping people
• Wants to accelerate their HR career growth
• Is comfortable communicating with employees, managers, and business owners
• Embraces technology, automation, and AI
• Can manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment
• Is excited by the idea of becoming a trusted HR advisor.

Location & Schedule

This position is based in our Baraboo, Wisconsin office. Our standard business hours are Monday-Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. However, we believe flexibility matters and support our employees' personal commitments and family priorities.
