You'll work closely with the MD and Senior Executive team to ensure that we're building a company with strong leadership and a happy, high performing, and engaged team.

  • Managing ER and performance-related issues, ensuring that any issues are handled appropriately and risk is minimised.
  • Championing our culture and engagement, including engagement surveys, finding ways to celebrate success, and running initiatives based on feedback.
  • Implementing and running a remuneration review process, including salary banding and benchmarking roles.
  • Providing advice and coaching support to the MD and Senior Leadership Team. Mentoring and developing the People & Culture team.

We think you will need:

  • You have at least a few years of experience in a broad Head of People and Culture role, ideally in a fast paced and rapidly scaling start-up environment, with exposure to complex ER matters and the full employee lifecycle.
  • Ideally, formal HR qualifications and up to date employment law knowledge of the local Australian market.
  • You're happy to be in a role with a huge amount of variety and know how to manage your time and prioritise your work.
  • You know how to use data and understand the measures and metrics that we should be tracking to help make better decisions.
  • You've got a commercial and collaborative approach and can work with the CEO to find the right balance between minimising risk and keeping the culture fun and agile and giving employees autonomy.
  • You'll be comfortable taking the lead and owning things to proactively get them done.
