About VanHomes

VanHomes designs and builds relocatable homes at our manufacturing facility in Berkeley Vale on the Central Coast. We’re family owned and growing nationally, with a team that runs from the factory floor through design, sales and the office.

The role

We’re looking for an HR Advisor to look after our people. This is the only HR role in the business. You’ll report directly to our CEO and be the first call for managers, supervisors and employees on anything people related.

- Develop and update HR policies and procedures
- Lead engagement surveys and wellbeing programs, working alongside our WHS team
- Coordinate training and development across the business
- Report to the CEO on recruitment, retention and engagement

What you’ll bring

- 2 to 3 years in a generalist HR role

- Working knowledge of the Fair Work Act and the National Employment Standards
- Experience applying modern awards, ideally with a blue collar or manufacturing workforce
- Hands-on experience managing employee relations matters yourself
- Confidence working on your own, and valuable judgement about when to escalate

- Strong organisational skills and attention to detail
- A tertiary qualification in HR or a related field is desirable

What’s on offer
