We outsource our payroll function. But as the head of HR in a rapidly-growing business but still young, I'm still managing a portion of the administrative burdens related to payroll, PTO, insurance, etc. Recruiting, full onboarding duties, and company policies are among SOME other tasks I own. Beyond this, everytime the word "compliance" arises, immediately, it's put on my plate. My company stretches the word "onboarding" to when we bring on subcontractors, it is again an "HR thing." Thoughts?

I work for a rapidly-growing small company with about 50+ employees and ever-so-fluctuating salespeople (not part of the 50). We have a good-sized group of foreign virtual assistants as well. I am paid $80k. With the information provided in my main post, I am also wondering if I am underpaid...

like

You need to hire a generalist or a coordinator, and you need a raise. $80k for an HRD in almost any US market is low. You’re doing a ton and deserve to be compensated well!

like

Per Glassdoors, 80k is average - but we don’t know which market you are in or your experience or certifications - still that sounds low given the scope. Certainly worth doing more research, look for comps in your region and make the case for something on par and equitable. Right now it sounds like they have a good deal and you may not.

I'm SVP/strategy for a PR agency. I moved into PR, Healthcare, and Strategic Planning only 3 years ago. An agency recruiter is trying to convince me to move into a GSVP account role, assuring me "at that level it's all strategy." (I dont think she understands the words she's using. Or that I'm qualified). But long-term, knowing account roles are so much more plentiful than brand planning in PR, I'm wondering if I should start thinking about account. Anyone here moved from strategy to account?
