  • Coach leaders through performance, development and employee relations matters

  • Oversee recruitment, onboarding, training, and employee engagement

  • Manage complex ER/IR issues and ensure compliance with Fair Work, WHS and modern awards

  • Contribute to planning, budgeting and reporting at an executive level

 

 

What we're looking for:

  • A people-first leader with a minimum of 5 years in a senior HR role

  • Proven ability to lead HR operations in a multi-faceted, fast-moving environment

  • Strong understanding of employment legislation, ER/IR, and compliance

  • Exceptional interpersonal skills — approachable, calm, and confident with all levels of staff

  • Experience in hospitality, clubs or a similar industry is highly regarded
