About The Role

We are seeking an experienced Senior People Partner (Clerk Grade 9/10) to join a high-performing People and Culture function within a central NSW Government agency.

This position is ideally suited to an established HR professional with strong employee relations and industrial relations expertise, particularly in interpreting NSW public sector awards,



employment conditions and government sector legislation.

Working closely with senior executives and the broader HR team, you will provide authoritative advice on complex workforce matters, lead people-related projects and guide junior colleagues in delivering consistent, compliant HR services.

The role combines strategic HR partnering with hands‑on employee advisory responsibilities, including secondments, employment conditions, workplace matters and return-to-work coordination. This is not a recruitment-focused position. Strong award interpretation, public sector employment knowledge and the confidence to advise senior stakeholders are the key priorities.
