Payroll Director

Harbor Regional Health

Aberdeen, Washington $82,000 to $104,000 annually Full Time | Leadership Opportunity

At Rural Staffing Services, we believe rural healthcare organizations deserve thoughtful, relationship driven recruiting support built around people, community, and long term sustainability.

We are proud to be assisting Harbor Regional Health with the search for a Payroll Director, an important leadership opportunity supporting a respected rural healthcare organization deeply connected to the Washington coast and the communities it serves.

Start Here

When organizations partner with Rural Staffing Services, our goal is to create a more personal, transparent, and meaningful hiring experience for everyone involved.

That means our team works directly with candidates first so hospital leadership receives thoughtful, vetted introductions rather than stacks of resumes.

If this opportunity speaks to you, we would love to connect and learn more about your leadership style, experience, and what matters most to you in your next chapter.

This Is More Than a Payroll Director Role

This is not simply a payroll processing position.

This is a leadership role that helps support the operational heartbeat of an entire healthcare organization.

As Payroll Director, you will oversee payroll operations across the hospital, medical group, and district while helping ensure employees are supported accurately, respectfully, and on time.

In rural healthcare, behind the scenes operational leaders make an enormous impact on the stability of teams, employee trust, and the organization's ability to continue serving its community well.

Why Aberdeen, Washington

Aberdeen is one of those communities that feels deeply rooted in Pacific Northwest character, history, and authenticity.

Located near the Washington coast and surrounded by forests, rivers, and outdoor recreation, Aberdeen offers a slower pace, natural beauty, and strong sense of community connection.

The region is known for:

Easy access to the Washington coastline and beaches Incredible fishing, hiking, and outdoor recreation Evergreen forests and scenic drives Affordable living compared to many larger Washington communities A welcoming small town atmosphere where relationships matter

And yes, music lovers will immediately recognize Aberdeen as the hometown of legendary Kurt Cobain. The community still carries that authentic, creative Pacific Northwest spirit that helped shape an entire era of music and culture.

For someone looking to step into meaningful leadership work while still enjoying quality of life and community connection, this is a truly special opportunity.

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
