Who We Help
At Talent HR Solutions, we partner with the businesses that make Hawaii run — the locally owned companies, growing teams, and dedicated employers who want more than a vendor. They want a real partner. Someone who picks up the phone, knows their name, and genuinely cares about their people.
If that sounds like you, you're in the right place.
Our Ideal Clients
We work best with Hawaii businesses that are ready to hand off the complexity of HR, payroll, and benefits — and trust a local team to handle it right. Our clients typically have between 5 and 150+ employees, though we're happy to talk if you're outside that range. What matters more than headcount is fit.
Our clients tend to:
-
Be growing or established businesses looking to simplify HR, payroll, and compliance
-
Value hands-on, local service over a one-size-fits-all national call center
-
Want access to strong benefits options, including UHA and Kaiser, along with potential savings on workers' compensation and SUTA rates
-
Be ready for a true partnership, not just a transaction
Industries We Commonly Support
We've built relationships across many of Hawaii's core industries and understand that each one comes with its own workforce challenges, compliance requirements, and culture. We currently serve clients in:
Construction & Skilled Trades
Plumbing, electrical, general contractors, and specialty trades — we understand the complexities of job-site workforces, workers' comp classifications, and Hawaii's contractor compliance requirements.
Retail & Hospitality
From Waikiki restaurants to neighborhood retailers, we help Hawaii's customer-facing businesses manage high-turnover workforces, seasonal staffing, and benefits that attract good people.
Office & Administrative Teams
Professional services, nonprofits, and office-based organizations looking to upgrade their HR infrastructure without hiring a full in-house team.
Healthcare & Prof. Services
Medical offices, clinics, and professional service firms that need HR handled correctly and confidentially, so they can stay focused on their clients.
Light Industrial, Warehouse & Distribution
Operations-heavy businesses with hourly workforces who need reliable payroll, time tracking, and workers' comp managed without disruption.
And More...
We work with a number of businesses throughout Hawaii in other industries. If yours isn't listed, please give us a call!
Business Types We Work With
Whether you've been in business for decades or you're navigating HR for the first time, we're built to help at whatever stage you're in.
-
Locally owned Hawaii businesses — Kama'aina companies that want a partner who understands the islands
-
Multi-location businesses with a Hawaii presence — Companies that need local expertise alongside broader HR support
-
Businesses transitioning from another provider — If your current HR company isn't delivering, we'll make the switch easy
-
First-time outsourcers — If you've been handling HR in-house and it's outgrown your capacity, we'll get you set up the right way from day one
Our Approach
We're not the right fit for everyone — and we're okay with that. What we're really good at is building long-term relationships with Hawaii businesses that value responsiveness, transparency, and a team that shows up for them. We take time to understand your business before we recommend anything, and we're with you every step of the way after you sign on.
Want to See If We're the Right Fit?
Let's find out together. We do our best to support a wide range of businesses and keep things as inclusive as possible. A few things worth knowing:
-
Certain specialized or higher-risk industries such as over-water or maritime operations may require additional review for workers' compensation coverage. We'll always be upfront with you about what's possible.
-
If for any reason we're not the right match, we'll tell you honestly and do our best to point you in the right direction. That's just how we operate.
The best first step is a conversation. It's complimentary, there's no pressure, and you'll walk away with a clearer picture of your options, whether that's with us or not.
