Cascade AIDS Project is looking for an HR and Payroll Administrator. We are looking for a detail-oriented professional to serve as the technical backbone of our People Operations team. In this role, you aren’t just processing numbers; you are ensuring that the people who care for our community are paid accurately, supported in their benefits, and free to focus on their patients and clients.

This is a Full-Time role working at our Davis St location in the Old Town area of Portland. The schedule for this role is a Hybrid Monday-Friday 9:00am-5:00pm, 3 days in office and 2 days work from home.

The pay for this position is a yearly salary of $62,000

Please submit your resume and cover letter by January 31st 2026.

Who You Are

  • You have at least 2 – 3 years’ hands-on experience processing full cycle payroll. It’s a huge plus if some or all of this experience is in non-profit, healthcare, or unionized organizations.
  • Fundamental Payroll Certification (FPC) or Certified Payroll Professional (CPP) designation is a plus but not required.
  • You are comfortable navigating HRIS platforms (a year or more experience processing payroll and/or administering benefits in Paycom is a huge plus!) and you aren't afraid of VLOOKUPS or Pivot Tables in Excel.
  • You are a data detective. You don’t just enter data; you verify it. You have a keen eye for detail and you find satisfaction in reconciling a complex invoice to the penny.
  • You have a systems mindset. You might not be a developer, but you have an aptitude for understanding how systems talk to each other. You are interested in looking at a workflow and asking, "Is there a better, faster way to do this?"
  • You are a calming presence. You understand that pay and benefits are personal and stressful. When an employee comes to you with a problem, you bring emotional regulation, empathy, and a solutions-oriented approach to the conversation.
  • You are mission-aligned. You understand that in a non-profit healthcare setting, administrative excellence directly supports the delivery of compassionate care.

What You’ll Do

  • You will manage the full lifecycle of semi-monthly payroll for our team using Paycom, ensuring 99.5%+ accuracy in timecards, deductions, and final pay.
  • You will be the guardian of our HRIS data integrity, conducting regular audits to ensure our personnel files, benefits data, and learning management records are flawless.
  • You will tackle monthly reconciliations of benefit carrier invoices (including our ICHRA medical plans), identifying discrepancies and solving root-cause errors between our systems and vendor bills.
  • You will serve as the first point of contact for employee questions regarding pay, benefits, and policies, providing clear answers and "Tier 1" support.
  • You will partner with the broader people and culture team to identify inefficiencies in our current processes and help implement smoother, digital-first workflows.

  • Health Leave
  • Retirement 3% Employer Match
  • Medical, Dental, & Vision
  • Life Insurance, Disability, & Family Leave

About Cascade AIDS Project

Our Mission : We support and empower all people living with or affected by HIV, reduce stigma, and provide compassionate healthcare to the the LGBTQ+ community & beyond.

Founded in 1983 and incorporated in 1985 as the Cascade AIDS Project, CAP is the oldest and largest community-based provider of HIV services, housing, education and advocacy in Oregon and Southwest Washington. CAP has grown considerably since its beginning, from a two person staff to over 100, from a budget of $100,000 to over $14 million. CAP operates multiple programs from its main service sites in Portland, OR & Vancouver, WA with the support of over 600 volunteers.

Cascade AIDS Project helps people put their lives back together by securing housing, finding essential medical care, and dealing with the countless issues that make the difference between giving up or getting up and going on. With HIV and AIDS, the huge emotional and financial burden to all affected by it can be staggering.

Imagine what it must be like for someone who suddenly finds they are without the essentials we so often take for granted. Sadly, some people with HIV lose their jobs, their housing, their friends and family, and all means of support. Shelter, life skills training, and emotional support — these are what CAP provides.
