- Supporting organisational change and business growth initiatives
- Working closely with the Senior HR Business Partner to deliver people outcomes across NSW operations

About You

Most importantly, you enjoy being in the business rather than sitting behind a desk.

You'll ideally bring:

- Experience in an HR Advisor role supporting operational, industrial or manufacturing environments
- Strong employee relations capability and confidence managing workplace matters independently
- Sound knowledge of the Fair Work Act, National Employment Standards and Award interpretation
- Strong influencing and relationship-building skills

You'll be joining a high-performing HR team focused on supporting the business through its next phase of growth.

Our priorities are clear:

- Building strong HR foundations and compliance
- Strengthening leadership capability
- Developing frontline leaders
- Improving understanding of policies, processes and expectations
- Creating safe and high-performing workplaces
- Supporting leaders to build engaged and accountable teams

We're looking for someone who can hit the ground running, build credibility quickly and become a trusted partner to our leaders across NSW.
