WHS & Administration Assistant

Casual | 3-Month Contract | Flexible Part-Time Hours

Padgett Group Pty Ltd – Launceston / Hybrid / Remote

Padgett Group is looking for an organised and proactive WHS & Administration Assistant to support our Safety & Compliance function for an initial three-month period.

This is a adaptable, part-time opportunity that could work particularly well around school hours, university or other commitments.

The role can be based in Launceston, worked remotely, or a combination of both, with flexibility around how the agreed hours are structured.

About the role

Working closely with our Safety & Compliance team, you will provide practical administrative support across WHS, compliance and employee records.

Your responsibilities will include:

- WHS and compliance administration

- Preparing and formatting procedures, forms and safety documentation

- Maintaining training, competency and licence records

- Updating registers, spreadsheets and electronic records

- Assisting with employee induction and onboarding documentation

- Following up outstanding training and compliance requirements

- Assisting with incident, hazard and corrective action administration

- Filing and maintaining employee and compliance records

- Data entry and document control

- Uploading and maintaining information within company systems

- General administrative support to the Safety & Compliance team

About you

You don't necessarily need to have worked in WHS before.





We're looking for someone who is:

- Highly organised with strong attention to detail

- Confident using Microsoft Word, Excel and Outlook

- Comfortable learning new systems

- Able to work independently and manage their own workload

- Reliable and able to follow tasks through to completion

- A clear and professional communicator

- Comfortable handling confidential employee and business information

- Willing to ask questions and learn

Experience in WHS, HR, compliance, administration, transport, forestry or heavy industry would be an advantage, but isn't essential.

We would also welcome applications from university students studying WHS, HR, business or a related field who are looking to gain practical industry experience.

What we're offering

- Casual position for an initial 3-month period

- Part-time hours

- Flexibility to work around school hours, university or other commitments

- Launceston-based, hybrid or remote working options

- Practical exposure to WHS and compliance within a large transport and forestry operation

- Support from an experienced Safety & Compliance team

- Potential for further opportunities depending on business requirements

We're more interested in finding the right person than fitting someone into traditional office hours.

If you're organised, reliable, good with systems and documentation, and looking for a flexible role where you can genuinely contribute, we'd like to hear from you.
