About the Role

This is a project-focused HR role where you will take ownership of reviewing, refining and uplifting core HR processes, policies and frameworks.
Working closely with leaders and HR stakeholders, you will identify gaps, streamline ways of working and implement improvements that are both practical and sustainable.

Key areas of focus include:
  • Reviewing and updating HR policies, procedures and documentation
  • Identifying opportunities to improve efficiency, compliance and employee experience

You are confident providing HR advice, but what really motivates you is building, refining and improving how things are done.

You will bring:
  • Demonstrated experience in HR project work or process improvement
  • Strong grounding in HR fundamentals including ER, policy and advisory
  • High level of initiative with the ability to work independently and drive outcomes
  • Strong stakeholder skills with the ability to influence in practical environments
  • A pragmatic mindset with a focus on solutions that are workable and sustainable
