Remote HR support for Butte employers.
Butte's economy grew out of mining, and that industrial backbone still shows in its manufacturers, trades, healthcare providers, and the technical training rooted at Montana Tech. Its small businesses are practical and hands-on, and the HR work they need is usually about putting clear, compliant basics in place.
Mountain HR Consulting works with Butte employers remotely from our Kalispell base. Most of the work happens by video and phone, which keeps support responsive and affordable.

A note on scope.
Mountain HR handles a wide range of HR work for Butte employers, and leaves a few things to specialists. Here is the line.
-
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 suited to trades and manufacturing teams.
From small trades shops to large Butte employers.
Butte businesses are hands-on and practical, and we support them across the size range, remotely. We help small trades shops and first-time employers alongside larger manufacturers, healthcare providers, and technical employers.
Our experience spans manufacturing, the trades, healthcare, and education, and reaches much larger organizations. A small Butte business gets guidance grounded in far more than its own size.
