About Flex HR: 

Flex HR is a fast-growing HR outsourcing company based in Alpharetta, GA, right outside of Atlanta with a sub location in Chicago, IL. We work with companies in a variety of industries to help them manage their human resources and payroll. We are a team of professionals who consistently provide our clients with white-glove customer service. We combine experienced HR Managers, Payroll Managers, Consultants, Recruiters, and leading payroll platforms into tailored solutions for each client. 

Job Summary: 

We are seeking a dynamic, experienced professional for a unique dual-function role at Flex HR.

This role is ideal for an experienced HR professional who is energized by client relationships, comfortable in a consultative sales environment, and excited to contribute to Flex HR's growth while doing meaningful HR work. You will be responsible for both retaining and delighting current clients and bringing in new ones.
