About Genesis HR -

At Genesis HR, we provide Australia’s only agenda-free people governance and industrial relations strategy. We skip the culture buzzwords and corporate fluff to deliver employer-centric, commercially driven HR and IR advice designed to protect business owners, manage liability and drive operational performance.

We advise a diverse commercial client base across Australia ranging from complex multi-site enterprises to high-growth stand-alone businesses.

Genesis HR operates as a lean, performance-focused, remote-first business. We evaluate our Advisers on technical authority, speed of execution, and client loyalty -not where you sit or how many hours you log.

The Role: Independent Contractor Engagement -

We are expanding our team of HR/IR Advisers and platform specialists for ongoing contract work. We are seeking Independent Consultants (ABN holders) who can commit 10 to 15 hours per week to support our growing client accounts.

You will act as a frontline HR/IR Adviser and systems specialist, protecting employers through aggressive compliance management, tactical dispute response, robust WorkCover defence and Employment Hero software optimisation.

Who We Are Looking For -

- Battle-Tested IR & Claims Capability: You have proven experience dealing directly with the Fair Work Commission, trade unions, and state workers' compensation authorities. You know how to gather evidence, document incident timelines, and challenge suspicious claims effectively.
- Deep Employment Hero Experience: You possess a minimum of 2–3+ years of deep, backend experience configuring, auditing, and running Employment Hero. (General platform users need not apply; you must know award interpretation, pay category mapping, and system workflows).
- High-Drive Career Stage:



You are an established professional who has built significant technical muscle, remains hungry for reliable, long-term contract work and is loyal to a rapid-moving, expanding firm.
- Commercial & Multi-Site Literacy: You understand the logistical and industrial realities of managing multi-site workforces alongside independent, stand-alone operations.
- No-Fluff Mindset: You prioritise commercially enforceable employer defence, risk management, and statutory compliance over traditional HR programs.

Key Responsibilities

- Commission & Dispute Representation: Prepare for and participate in Fair Work Commission (FWC) conciliation meetings, dispute resolution proceedings, and union interactions on behalf of employers.
- Multi-Site & Stand-Alone Operations: Provide commercial HR and IR counsel tailored to multi-site operational structures, shift-based workforces and single-site independent operations.
- Employment Hero Architecture: Lead end-to-end setups, audits and daily platform management using advanced Employment Hero backend experience.
- HR Audits & Compliance: Conduct thorough IR and operational HR audits to identify structural liabilities, misclassifications, and compliance gaps.
- Modern Award & EA Interpretation: Perform accurate interpretation of complex Modern Awards, Enterprise Agreements, and Fair Work Act legislation to optimise payroll expenses and guarantee statutory compliance.
- WorkCover & Workers' Compensation Defence: Execute end-to-end management of workers' compensation matters, including building evidence-backed employer defences to challenge, dispute, and defeat fake, non-genuine, or exaggerated WorkCover claims.

If you are wanting to get into independent contracting as a HR/IR Adviser then this may be that opportunity. As longs as you have deep Employment Hero Experience. www.genesishr.com.au
