People and Culture Business Partner

Help shape the next chapter of People and Culture at Rocky Bay.

At Rocky Bay, our people are at the heart of everything we do. We’re evolving the way People and Culture partners with the organisation, with a greater focus on trusted advice, leader capability, employee experience and continuous improvement.

Rocky Bay is a leading provider of disability services, supporting thousands of children and adults across Western Australia to live with choice, independence and dignity.

We’re looking for a People and Culture Business Partner who wants to be part of that journey.

You’ll join a close-knit and energetic team and partner with leaders across our Corporate and Operational divisions, supporting the people matters that arise every day while also contributing to projects and improvements that will shape how we work in the future.

This isn’t a role where you’ll simply maintain existing HR processes. You’ll have the opportunity to bring ideas, challenge thinking constructively, build trusted relationships and help us develop practical, people-centred solutions.
