About Us
Careva is the administrative arm of Care Business Group, which has championed choice and control for people with disability since ****.
Through our various NDIS-registered companies, we now support over 2,000 participants nationally.
Careva's purpose is to champion choice and control for both NDIS participants and providers.
Our mission is to build enduring relationships across all stakeholder groups.
The Role
We are seeking a P&C; Business Partner who thrives on variety and loves growth: onboarding new staff one day, untangling an ER issue the next, organising the next Town Hall the day after.
You'll be the go-to voice for practical, no-fluff people advice, and dive deep into business as usual in a very dynamic workplace.
A key part of this role is owning the contractor experience end to end.
You'll be the main point of contact for contractors from induction through to ongoing engagement, building genuine relationships and fostering a real sense of community across a growing and dispersed contractor workforce.
We're also leaning hard into AI, using it to speed up reporting and cut the admin grind, so you can spend more time on the parts of this job that need a human: judgement, coaching and real conversations.
What You'll Do
Partner with leaders across all CBG brands on people and guidance




Own employee relations end to end: investigations, grievances, PIPs
Support recruitment, onboarding and remuneration
Induct and onboard contractors, acting as their primary relationship contact throughout their engagement
Build and nurture a contractor community, driving ongoing engagement and connection beyond the initial onboarding period
Manage workers comp, return-to-work, WHS and psychosocial safety
Use Employment Hero, PayCat and AI tools to turn data into decisions
Deliver engagement surveys and keep policies sharp and compliant
What You'll Bring
3+ years as a P&C;/HR Business Partner
Strong employment law knowledge and sound judgement
Experience managing contractor or contingent workforce relationships is highly regarded
Comfort with Employment Hero, Kadence and at the very least, a genuine interest in using AI to work smarter.
Expertise with Claude a plus
Working rights in Australia, and a National Police Check and NDIS Worker Screening Check (or willingness to obtain both)
Why You'll Love It
Make a difference in the lives of those living with disability; dynamic organisation on a strong growth trajectory; Employee Share Option Plan, plus performance bonuses; WFH potential post 6-months; a birthday gift card, discounts across petrol, retail and health care, and an EAP with genuine support if required.
If you want your P&C; skills to count for something real, in a sector that matters, we'd love to hear from you.
