Working within a highly successful, down-to-earth agricultural business, you'll take responsibility for the day-to-day delivery of HR operations while continuing to improve the systems, processes and disciplines that support the business.
This isn't a role for someone who wants to sit on the side-lines and provide HR theory.
We're looking for someone who is comfortable rolling up their sleeves, working through issues with managers and employees, and making sure things actually happen.
You'll need to be strong on
process, compliance and attention to detail
, but equally robust with people.
The environment is straightforward and relatively informal, so your ability to build trust, communicate clearly and deal with people in a genuine and practical way will be critical.
The role
Working closely with managers across the business and the leadership team, you'll oversee the delivery of core HR activities including:
Day-to-day HR operations and employee support
Employee relations and performance matters
Employment contracts, policies and documentation
HR systems, records and reporting
Recruitment, onboarding and offboarding
Remuneration and employment conditions
HR compliance and employment-related requirements
Improving HR processes and making them simpler and more consistent
Supporting managers to deal confidently with people matters
Ensuring HR initiatives are followed through and delivered
There will be plenty to manage, but also the opportunity to improve how things are done.
You'll need to be comfortable moving between the detail and the bigger picture, whether that means working through an employee issue, improving a process, checking documentation or helping a manager navigate a difficult conversation.




About you
We're looking for someone who has solid HR experience but doesn't need a highly structured corporate environment around them.
You'll ideally be:
Hands-on and delivery focused
with a strong bias towards action
Organised, methodical and good at following things through
Strong on HR process, governance and compliance
Commercial and pragmatic in the way you approach HR
Approachable and capable of building relationships across all levels
A clear, straightforward communicator who doesn't hide behind HR jargon
Comfortable working with both managers and frontline employees
Confident dealing with sensitive or challenging people matters
Able to bring structure and discipline without making things unnecessarily bureaucratic
Comfortable working independently and using good judgement
Experience within
agriculture, agribusiness, food production, manufacturing, transport, resources or another operationally focused industry
would be well regarded.
More important, though, is that you understand how to work with practical, busy people and can adapt your approach accordingly.
The opportunity
This role will suit someone who
enjoys travel, being
close to the business and close to the people
.
You won't be expected to turn the organisation into a highly corporate HR environment.
Instead, the focus is on making sure the fundamentals are right, managers are well supported, employees are treated fairly and consistently, and HR delivers what it says it will deliver.
If you're an experienced HR professional who combines
good process and compliance disciplines with common sense, energy and a genuine way with people
, we'd like to hear from you.
