Good work starts with good people.
As your values-first HR partner, we’ll always put people over profits. No exceptions.
We don't partner with typical business owners.
So we don't offer typical HR.
Our clients are values-driven small business leaders and nonprofit organizations who refuse to cut corners when it comes to investing in their people and living on mission.
They find us when they need to simplify the complexities of business. They choose us when they find so much more than the traditional HR solutions stack.
Our Values
Everything we do is guided by our values.
Relationships
We build relationships with our clients so we can show up as partners, helping our clients grow themselves, their people, their business, and their impact.
Servant leadership
We aren’t here to be first or to stand in the spotlight. We are here to be servant leaders to the clients we serve, equipping them to succeed – both in work and in mission.
On Mission
We’re here to impact lives – beyond the boundaries of work. That’s why we intentionally partner with values-first business owners who see their own work as mission, too.
Why Servant HR?
It’s a question our founder asked himself back in 2003, too.
After getting his start in Indiana’s first-ever PEO company, Jeff Leffew felt a calling he couldn’t ignore. Pulling out a blue pen and a yellow notebook, he scribbled out a manifesto that would become the foundation for Servant HR – an unapologetic, faith-forward HR company that led with radical transparency, integrity, and an unyielding commitment to servant leadership.
Today, Servant HR has grown into one of Indiana’s leading PEOs, serving small business owners throughout the region with a comprehensive stack of HR solutions, including HR coaching and consulting, risk management, payroll, benefits administration, and retirement.
With a deep bench of expertise available to every client, Servant HR offers counsel for multi-state compliance and runs payroll in 39 states. Our team includes payroll coordinators, benefits administrators, onboarding specialists, a staff accountant, a licensed attorney, and other HR experts who work as a team for every client we serve.
Our shared and collaborative expertise ensures accuracy at every level of our clients’ businesses, but what sets us apart from our competitors in the marketplace is our values-aligned approach.
Our bold admission?
HR is just the start of what we offer.
When you partner with us, we come alongside you as advisors and invested teammates, helping you grow your people and your profits without compromising your integrity or your convictions.
