This role supports all four Jerry’s locations (Lennox, Beresford, Vermillion, and Sheldon) and is perfect for someone who loves organization, enjoys helping others, and gets real satisfaction from knowing everyone got paid correctly and feels supported.

• Process payroll accurately and on time (you’re basically a payday superhero)
• Handle payroll changes, PTO tracking, bonuses, and deductions
• Answer payroll questions with patience, clarity, and a smile

• Be a go-to resource for employees and leaders
• Help onboard new hires so they feel welcome from Day One
• Assist with benefits enrollment, changes, and questions
• Keep employee records organized, accurate, and confidential

• Help make Jerry’s a great place to work
• Support birthdays, anniversaries, celebrations, and recognition
• Assist with hiring coordination and internal communications
• Be a positive, approachable presence across all locations

• Help ensure we’re following HR and payroll regulations
• Support policy updates and rollouts
• Protect sensitive employee information like a pro

• Have experience in HR, payroll, or office administration
• Love details but also enjoy working with people
• Can keep things confidential (like really confidential)
• Are comfortable juggling multiple locations and priorities
• Enjoy learning systems and processes (or already know them!)
• Are open to part-time or full-time work, depending on fit and availability
• (Automotive experience is great — but not required.)

• Family-owned business with strong Midwest values
• Supportive leadership that truly cares about its people
• A role where you make a real impact across the entire organization
• Flexible schedule options for the right person
• A team that works hard, laughs often, and supports one another

While Lennox is the preferred home base, this position can be located at any Jerry’s Auto Group location. Occasional travel between stores helps keep connections strong and relationships even stronger.

If you love helping people, staying organized, and being the calm, friendly force behind the scenes — we’d love to meet you.
