Job Description

AMA (NSW) is the peak body representing the state's medical profession - advocating for doctors and their patients, and supporting our members through some of the most complex moments in their careers. Our small but high-impact Workplace Relations team is the first port of call when members need practical, reliable advice they can trust.

/n

We're looking for a Workplace Relations Advisor to join that team. This is a genuine advisory role from day one - you'll be giving real advice to real members on real problems, with the backing and mentorship of our Director of Workplace Relations, not sitting on the sidelines.

/n

/n

- Visiting Medical Officer Determinations and NSW Public Hospital Awards

- The Fair Work Act, relevant awards, and employer obligations

/n

- Dispute resolution and grievance procedures

/n

- Performance management, redundancy and termination processes in private practice

/n

- Contracts, workplace investigations, and policy and procedure advice

/n/n

You'll also prepare correspondence and letters of advice, present at webinars and training sessions, and contribute to the ongoing improvement of the advice AMA (NSW)



delivers to its members - with support from the team's paralegals and the wider Workplace Relations group around you.

- Full-time or part-time (four days, including Fridays) considered
