Honest opinion on HR Salary
![2406663](http://blr-hrforums.elasticbeanstalk.com/plugins/DefaultAvatars/design/BlueAvatar.jpg)
Alright, you honest and opinionated HR folk...........give me your honest opinions on a non-profit organization in Virginia Beach, VA finally creating a formal HR position. We're talking a one-person HR office for 150 employees:
resp. include payroll processing, benefits admin., work comp, policy creation and implementation, staff training, conflict resolution and any other HR duty that you can think of (not to mention some resistence from unskilled mgt.). What would you expect to be paid?????

For the record - I would like to advise the interested party on this "job offer". Since this Agency doesn't have current formal HR, they have no clue as to the salary that would be deserved for such an important position. I think that if she were to take it, she would be a BARGAIN (especially since they aren't even offering mid 30's claiming budgeting restraints).

Good Luck!

The most immediate answer is: A LOT ($$$).
Although I'm in CA, I also am a 'Lone Ranger', doing the same duties (all) by myself. The best info for you is to do a 'same type of agency' salary survey. I can send you an already made (and well used, I might add) excel spreadsheet that will be of great help in your survey.

I can tell you my employer is a non-profit (Public Utility District), we have 40 regular full-time ees, and that number goes up to about 55 during the summer months when we hire seasonals. I can tell you my monthly range is: $4474.69 - $5727.82 with the plus of 12.5% above the max. in incentives.
One other thing, you have 150 ee's & no HR person? Make sure the HR person you get is given some lee-way to get things started as it can be really difficult to wrestle legal control back from supervisors/managers that are used to doing it the 'old' way. Make sure the HR person receives a lot of support from management.
