The Role

The right HR Assistant will balance long-term strategic thinking with the discipline to execute on near-term priorities. Look past the title and you'll see $49,000 - $71,000, a ND base, and a mid-level role that asks you to lead, not just execute.

Key Responsibilities

  • Tighten the reporting loop until bad news travels in hours, not weeks
  • Own the P&L for business and report performance to senior leadership
  • Connect daily Payroll Administration operations to the strategy on the wall
  • Wire up dashboards so Grand Forks managers stop asking you for the same numbers
  • Set the forever-learning operational standards that keep IBM running smoothly
  • Partner with finance, marketing, and product to align on shared business outcomes

What You'll Bring

  • The diplomacy to align stakeholders who don't agree yet
  • Hands-on experience with modern Payroll Administration workflows and tooling
  • 5 years of learning when to trust the process and when to break it
  • The kind of reliability that earns you the hard assignments
  • Hands-on business experience that holds up to follow-up questions
  • A Grand Forks network, or the hustle to build one from scratch

At IBM, our mission is to make business simpler, faster, and more accessible for everyone in Grand Forks, ND and beyond. At IBM feedback has a short half-life, delivered close to the moment it can still help.

The HR Assistant role earns $49,000 - $71,000 and opens doors to cross-functional projects that accelerate your Competency Mapping and Interpersonal Skills growth.

This is an open, funded role that we intend to fill in the coming weeks.

We're keeping this HR Assistant search short, so put your hat in the ring this week.
