About Us
Proudly Western Australian and family-owned, Western Meat Packers Group has grown from a small boning room established in 1983 into an integrated meat-processing business servicing domestic and international markets. Today, our operations span meat processing, boning, packing, cold storage and distribution. This integrated capability allows us to manage quality and service across key stages of the supply chain while continuing to build on the strong customer and supplier relationships that have supported our growth.

Our business operates in a fast-paced and highly regulated environment where workplace safety, food quality, operational discipline and capable people are essential to everything we do.

Working closely with the Safety Manager, you will help maintain our Work Health and Safety Management System, coordinate safety records and actions, and provide administrative support across workers’ compensation, injury management, training and broader WHS activities. The role will also support the HR function across recruitment, onboarding, employee administration and other stages of the employment lifecycle.

- Coordinate WHS training, licences, competencies and refresher requirements, and maintain the relevant training records and matrices.

- Assist with workplace inspections, internal audits, risk assessments and compliance reviews.

- Assist with employee inductions and ensure required WHS documentation is completed and recorded.

- Support recruitment activities, including preparing advertisements, reviewing applications and coordinating interviews.

- Communicate with candidates and assist with reference checks, working-rights checks, medical bookings and other pre-employment requirements.

- Support with the coordination of onboarding activities and prepare new-starter documentation.

- Assist with employee inductions and ensure employment records are complete and accurately maintained.

You will be a practical, approachable coordinator who enjoys keeping systems organised, following matters through to completion, and working with people across all levels of a business. To succeed in the role, you will bring:

- Previous experience in a WHS, safety administration, HR, injury management, workers compensation or compliance-related position.

- An understanding of WHS systems, risk management and incident-reporting processes.

- Exposure to workers’ compensation, injury management or return-to-work coordination will be highly regarded.
