We're looking for someone to join our People & Culture team, where the work is varied, the impact is meaningful and there's always something new to learn. If you enjoy supporting people, making processes better and having a little fun along the way, we'd love to hear from you!

About Barkuma:

Barkuma is a not-for-profit organisation that has been supporting people with disability in South Australia for over 50 years. We are passionate about creating opportunities, building independence and making a meaningful difference in people's lives.

About The Role:

As our People & Culture Administrator, you'll play an important role in keeping our HR operations running smoothly and supporting a positive employee experience.

Working closely with the People & Culture Manager and team, you'll provide administrative and coordination support across the employee lifecycle, from recruitment and onboarding through to employee development and offboarding.

What you'll be doing:

- Coordinating recruitment, onboarding and offboarding activities.

- Preparing employment contracts, variations, letters and other HR documentation.

- Maintaining accurate employee records and information in Employment Hero.

- Monitoring employee compliance requirements, clearances and mandatory training.

- Coordinating training enrolments, tracking completion and maintaining training records.

- Managing routine HR enquiries through our shared mailbox and ticketing system.

- Supporting employee engagement activities, surveys and P&C; projects.

- Developing and updating procedures, checklists and workflows.

- Identifying opportunities to improve processes and make things work better.

About You:

We're looking for someone who's organised, enjoys working with people, has a good eye for detail and likes a bit of variety in their day. After all, no two days in HR are quite the same!

You'll bring:

- Previous HR administration experience or experience in a similar role.





- Excellent communication and customer service skills.

- Strong organisational and multitasking skills, with the ability to juggle changing priorities.

- Exceptional attention to detail and accuracy, particularly when preparing documents and maintaining records.

- Confidence using Microsoft Office, especially Excel, Word, PowerPoint and Outlook.

- Experience with Employment Hero or similar HR systems, or the willingness to learn.

- A proactive approach — you take ownership, follow things through and look for solutions rather than waiting for instructions.

- A willingness to learn about the disability sector and its compliance requirements.

A qualification in Business Administration or Human Resources will be highly regarded.

You'll also need an NDIS Worker Screening clearance (or willingness to obtain), a current driver's licence, the ability to travel between Barkuma sites at least twice a week and current legal rights to work in Australia.
