Bizhaven
Alex Wicks is looking to the future with Bizhaven , revolutionizing the HR and safety services space with a Software as a Service ( SaaS ) component . When Wicks founded Bizhaven in 2019 , it was evident the industry needed a refresh , so she built Bizhaven with the idea of creating a space where people could make an impact at every level .
Now leading the Sacramento region for outsourced HR and safety services — and having expanded into over 40 states — Wicks and her team have made 2022 ’ s focus their newly-launched employee management system . The platform allows employers to best communicate , manage and maximize their workforce , zeroing in on the most important aspects of HR . The system includes employee data , performance management with interactive videos , a robust learning portal and training tracker , custom organizational charts , conversation feeds with time stamps , and a system that fully integrates with payroll
and benefits to provide transparent total compensation packages .
“ Our mission since we started the company has always been to make HR and safety simple ,” Wicks says . “ We ’ ve stayed true to that mission as we ’ ve continued to evolve the company and while building out the employee management system . We take the same fundamental approach of first analyzing the big picture , then executing on the necessities . Instead of over-tooling or complicating situations , we always keep in mind the importance of convenience , which shines through in our new system like it has with our service .”
Looking back on the last three years , Wicks is proud of what her team has accomplished and is excited for what ’ s to come as they enter the SaaS space . In the past year , Wicks was part of Sacramento ’ s Class of 2021 40 under 40 , Bizhaven was recognized as one of Sacramento ’ s Best Places to Work in 2021 , and most recently , Bizhaven was listed as one of Sacramento ’ s Fastest Growing Companies of 2022 . She believes they ’ ve only just scratched the surface and attributes Bizhaven ’ s success to her hardworking team .
“ I ’ m just the person who pushes the green button ,” she says . “ My team is the brains behind the operation and I can ’ t thank them enough .”
“ Instead of over-tooling or complicating situations , we always keep in mind the importance of convenience , which shines through in our new system like it has with our service .”
