Overview

Are you ready to own the injury management and RTW function in a large, fast-growing organisation? Do you thrive on autonomy and want to shape how a critical function operates? We are seeking an experienced Injury Management & WHS Coordinator to take ownership of injury management, return-to-work, and safety initiatives across our organisation. With more than 50 Early Childhood Centres across NSW, we are a leading provider in the ECEC sector – and we are committed to creating safe, supportive workplaces for our people.

This role offers high levels of autonomy, the opportunity to design and embed best-practice frameworks, and the chance to become our subject matter expert in all aspects of injury management, workers compensation and WHS.

About the role

This is a newly created, full-time role offering you the opportunity to design, lead, and embed best-practice return to work and injury management processes across the organisation. Reporting into HR and working closely with Operations and Centre Managers, you will lead a holistic approach to safety and injury management. This includes prevention, early intervention, injury management, and safe return-to-work strategies.

You will also act as the organisation's Return to work (RTW) Coordinator, ensuring we meet our obligations under NSW workers compensation legislation.

Key responsibilities
  • Act as the nominated RTW Coordinator and manage all workers compensation claims and return-to-work processes
  • Design and implement effective RTW and injury management frameworks covering prevention, early intervention, treatment, and recovery
  • Collaborate with HR, Centre Managers, and Operations leaders to drive early intervention and safe, sustainable RTW strategies
  • Act as the main point of contact with insurers, treating practitioners, and external stakeholders on claims and injury management
  • Provide coaching and guidance to leaders and employees on WHS and injury management obligations
  • Analyse injury trends and lead initiatives that reduce risks and improve safety outcomes across our centres
  • Contribute to broader WHS initiatives, policy development, and compliance monitoring across the organisation
About You

You are an experienced Injury Management professional with the confidence to lead and the skills to make a genuine impact. You balance compassion for employees with strong compliance and case management skills, and you're motivated to design and own the function from the ground up.

  • Proven experience in RTW coordination, workers compensation, and injury management (essential)
  • Solid knowledge of WHS legislation and best practice safety frameworks
  • Accreditation as a Return to work coordinator
  • Strong case management skills with the ability to handle sensitive matters effectively
  • Ability to analyse data, identify trends, and drive preventative initiatives
  • A collaborative approach, balanced with the confidence to work independently and make decisions
