About the role

n

Workplace Relations for Calvary primarily means:

n

n
- Collaborating on enterprise agreement negotiations and implementation.
n
- Advising on wages and entitlements under the Fair Work Act (and related legislation) and contract law.
n
- Union relationships and alternative dispute resolution.
n
- Project work including mergers and acquisitions.
n
- Working on continuous improvement initiatives.
n
- Policy development (with an industrial scope).
n

n

We also help our Employment Relations colleagues with overflow case management and litigation.

n

No two days are the same in the Calvary Workplace Relations Team!

n

The role is a full-time permanent position to join a team of 4 experienced WR professionals from a range of past careers. Our Team has one thing in common – we love to grow our knowledge and skills in employment law and we're motivated to solve problems and help others within Calvary.

n

Of course, this role would suit an Employment Relations / Industrial Relations / Workplace Relations Advisor from a corporate team, trade union, or ER/IR advisory service. But we'd also love to hear from Senior Payroll Officers, Junior Lawyers,



or People & Culture professionals who are wanting to build upon those fundamental skills in this specialist field.

n

This role is designed as a mid-level advisor/specialist role and not a Team Leader or Manager role.

n

We operate on a hybrid working model with Offices based in Sydney, Newcastle, Melbourne and Adelaide for those days you're in the office.

n

About you

n

You will be passionate about all aspects of Workplace Relations / Employment Relations / Industrial Relations and have a curious mind with a desire for opportunity!

n

Minimum 2 years' dedicated ER/IR/WR advice (half of us are from ER/IR telephone advice service companies) or at least 4 years' experience as a People & Culture Business Partner.

n

We will absolutely consider Senior Payroll Specialists with strong interpretation skills and exceptional MS Excel skills who want to learn how enterprise agreements are made and take on that work.

n

n
- Demonstrated experience in reading, interpreting and applying Fair Work Instruments such as Modern Awards and/or Enterprise Agreements.
n
- Demonstrated experience in reading, interpreting and applying Australian employment-related laws (Fair Work Act, Long Service Leave Acts).
n
- Demonstrated experience using MS Excel at an intermediate level to conduct audits and analysis of payroll and other employment data.
n




- Solid interpersonal skills with a focus on a customer service approach – 'That'll do' is not in our vocabulary.
n
- Strong attention to detail – We do complex work, so this is key.
n
- An inquisitive mind with research skills – We do not use artificial intelligence to learn the 'why'.
n
- An ideas person - We don't believe in 'That's the way we've always done it'.
n
- A self-starting personality – We find problems, own them and resolve them.
n
- Strong organisational skills - We're busy but variety is what makes the job interesting.
n
- Strong MS Office skills (MS Word, MS Powerpoint, MS Excel) – We always ensure a professional look.
n

n

The Salary Package for this role is $138,000 plus 12% superannuation plus a Charity Salary Packaging benefit of up to $6,000 extra cash in hand.

n
