HR consulting for Billings small businesses.
Billings is Montana's largest city and its commercial and medical hub, with employers across healthcare, energy, agriculture, finance, retail, and logistics. Mountain HR Consulting supports Billings small businesses remotely, with the same hands-on HR help we bring to employers across the state.
Remote HR support for Billings employers.
Billings anchors south-central Montana, and its business community is the most diverse in the state: regional hospitals and clinics, energy and refining, agriculture and ranching supply, banking and finance, retail, and distribution. Small businesses in that mix often grow fast and hit people questions before they have anyone dedicated to handling them.
Mountain HR Consulting works with Billings businesses remotely from our base in Kalispell. Most of the work happens by video and phone, which keeps things responsive and affordable. We provide services remotely, so we can work with you no matter where you are.

A note on scope.
Mountain HR handles a wide range of HR work for Billings employers, and refers a few things to specialists. Here is where that line falls.
-
Not offered
Payroll processing
Mountain HR does not run payroll, file payroll taxes, or administer payroll systems. We partner with employers who already have a payroll provider (or can recommend one).
-
Not offered
Benefits administration
We can advise on benefits design, but we don't enroll employees, manage claims, or act as a broker. For active brokerage, we refer to trusted partners.
-
Not offered
Employment law representation
We provide compliance guidance, not legal advice. For litigation, charges, or formal legal opinions, we coordinate with your attorney.
Need payroll handled? We can recommend a Montana payroll provider that fits your size and industry.
