Office Administrator – HR, Payroll & Recruitment

The WA Carpentry Company | Landsdale, WA | Full-Time

Looking for a varied admin role where no two days are quite the same?

The WA Carpentry Company is a growing residential and commercial carpentry business based in Landsdale, working across the Perth metropolitan area.

We're looking for a friendly, organised and capable Office Administrator / All-Rounder to join our team.

This isn't a specialist HR role, and you don't need to come to us knowing everything. We're looking for someone with solid administration experience, great attention to detail and the confidence to take ownership of their work. Experience in payroll, recruitment or HR would be a big advantage, but we're happy to support the right person as they learn and grow into these areas.

You'll work closely with our General Manager and wider office team, helping with everything from recruitment and payroll through to employee records, company vehicles and general administration.

If you're the sort of person who loves being organised, enjoys variety and likes being the person who keeps things on track, we'd love to hear from you.

What You'll Be Doing

Your role will include a mix of:

General Administration

- Providing general administrative support to the office and management team.

- Preparing documents, correspondence, spreadsheets and company records.

- Maintaining organised electronic files, registers and records.

- Assisting with day-to-day office tasks and enquiries.

- Helping improve administrative systems and processes as the business grows.

Recruitment & New Starters

- Posting job advertisements on SEEK and other platforms.

- Reviewing applications and completing initial candidate screening.

- Coordinating phone interviews and face-to-face interviews.

- Communicating with applicants throughout the recruitment process.

- Completing reference checks.

- Preparing new starter paperwork and assisting with employee onboarding.

HR & Employee Administration

- Preparing employment contracts and other employee documentation.

- Maintaining accurate employee files and records.





- Keeping track of probation reviews and other important employee dates.

- Assisting with employee letters and general HR administration.

- Maintaining company policies, procedures and forms.

- Helping coordinate employee training and development.

Payroll

- Assisting with and ultimately taking ownership of fortnightly payroll.

- Maintaining employee payroll information.

- Processing leave and keeping employee records up to date.

- Setting up new employees and processing departing employees.

- Checking timesheets and payroll information for accuracy.

Previous payroll experience would be fantastic, but we're open to training the right person.

Training & Compliance

- Maintaining employee licences, tickets, qualifications and training records.

- Monitoring expiry dates and following up renewals.

- Keeping employee compliance records organised and current.

Vehicles & Company Assets

- Maintaining vehicle, plant and equipment records.

- Keeping our company asset registers up to date.

- Monitoring vehicle registrations, servicing and insurance.

- Keeping track of company vehicles, fuel cards, phones, laptops, PPE and other equipment issued to employees.

About You

We aren't looking for someone who ticks every single box.

More importantly, we're looking for someone who is reliable, switched-on, organised and willing to learn.

You might currently be an Office Administrator, Administration Assistant, Payroll Administrator, HR Administrator or simply a great all-rounder looking for your next opportunity.

Ideally, you'll have:

- Previous office administration experience.

- Excellent organisational and time-management skills.

- Strong attention to detail and accuracy.





- Good written and verbal communication skills.

- Confidence using Microsoft Word, Excel and Outlook.

- The ability to juggle different priorities without losing track of the details.

- A friendly and professional approach when dealing with employees, candidates, suppliers and other contacts.

- The ability to work independently and take ownership of your responsibilities.

- A willingness to learn current systems and take on new responsibilities.

- Discretion and professionalism when dealing with confidential information.

Even Better If You Have:

- Payroll experience, particularly with Xero.

- Recruitment or HR administration experience.

- Experience with employee onboarding.

- Experience using Deputy.

- Experience working in construction, building or the trades.

- Experience maintaining vehicle, asset or compliance registers.

Don't have experience in every area? That's okay.

If you're a strong administrator who is organised, capable and keen to develop your skills in payroll, recruitment and HR, we'd still encourage you to apply.

Why Join Us?

At The WA Carpentry Company, we're a close-knit and hardworking team, and we're looking for someone who genuinely wants to become part of the business.

You'll receive:

- A stable, full-time position.

- A varied role where you won't be doing the same thing all day.

- Support and training as you grow into different areas of the position.

- Genuine responsibility and ownership of your work.

- The opportunity to develop your HR, recruitment and payroll skills.

- A friendly and supportive office team.

- A modern office environment in Landsdale.

- The opportunity to grow your role as the company continues to develop.

Most importantly, we're looking for the right person, not necessarily someone with the perfect CV.
