Moss Consulting HR Services is the outsourced HR department for growing businesses. Small and mid-sized companies across the country trust us to provide fractional HR, payroll, benefits, recruiting, and compliance support — giving their teams the depth of an experienced HR department without the overhead of building one in-house.

The Role

Moss Consulting is looking for an HR Manager in Austin TX who is ready to own the HR function for the growing group of business owners we support. This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who takes initiative, operates with integrity, and is equally comfortable in the details and in the room with ownership.

What You'll Do

• Own all major HR functions end-to-end for our assigned client businesses — payroll, benefits administration, conflict resolution, leadership support, onboarding/offboarding, compliance, and more
• Manage complex employee relations matters from intake to resolution
• Own the compliance calendar for assigned clients: I-9, FLSA, EEO-1, ACA, and applicable state requirements
• Evaluate the overall health of HR at each client — identifying gaps and presenting findings to leadership
• Lead open enrollment and performance review cycles
• Partner directly with client ownership-level leadership — including the hard conversations
• Support client businesses in running effective people operations

Compensation

• $37.50/hr to start, progressing to $50.00/hr across the first year (target earnings $120-130k+ depending on capacity)
• Quarterly revenue share on work you manage
• Additional revenue share for any business you originate — no expectation, we simply believe in rewarding our team when they help us grow

What We're Looking For

• High output / high accountability professionals who don't drop things, they own them and bring them to completion
• PHR or SHRM-CP certification
• Advanced degree, MBA or HR field preferred
• Proven experience managing complex employee relations independently
• Full competency in HR compliance auditing
• Comfortable partnering with and advising ownership — including delivering difficult news and pushing back when it matters
• Reliable, a strong contributor, and someone peers count on to move work forward
• Genuine interest in developing others, not just managing tasks
• Experience with EOS is a significant plus — we run on EOS and support EOS-operating businesses, so familiarity with the framework will accelerate your impact here. No EOS background? If you're the right person and open to learning it, we want to hear from you
