G&A Partners
From payroll administration to HR assistance, G&A creates scalable service offerings that meet the needs of an organization today and have the flexibility to adapt accordingly as a business grows. By identifying a client’s greatest needs and addressing their biggest challenges, they can build a team and a customized solutions package that sets them up for success.
At G&A, superior client service is part of their DNA, and their dedication to serving clients and their employees results in faster response times, proactive support teams, and higher-value strategic HR services. No matter the need, request, or concern, clients have access to a dedicated Client Advocate and a team of experienced specialists committed to fully understanding clients.
With everything involved in managing human resources, the most important element can sometimes get lost: Humans. Behind every paycheck, medical plan, time clock, and safety program is a person—a unique individual whose skills and talents contribute to the success of your business.
HR solutions that take a standardized approach don’t account for the individual goals and needs of the extraordinary parts that make up your whole—the people that make it all work. From the day their doors opened, G&A has stood firm to its commitment to put people first. That means they take the time to get to know a client’s business and its employees—their goals and unique challenges—and G &A builds a customized, flexible plan to meet those needs.
G&A approaches every client relationship as a longtime partnership. As such, they have built an organization with fully comprehensive HR capabilities and expertise—one that can scale, grow and adapt as a company’s needs change. Regardless of the current size of a business or its stage of growth, G&A has the HR solutions, experts, and tools that can help weather any storm or reach the next level of development—all the while keeping employees happy and healthy, organizations compliant, and business primed for success.
