About Them
Join a large, multi-site ASX-listed organisation at a pivotal moment in its growth and transformation journey. Supporting a diverse white- and blue-collar workforce of approximately 2,000, this business is on an aggressive growth trajectory and is seeking strong, future-focused leadership within People & Culture (P&C) to shape its next chapter.
Proudly 'different' from its competitors, the organisation sets itself apart through its scale, culture, agility, and ambitious projects. With a deep commitment to innovation, technology, and culture-building, it fosters a fast-paced, entrepreneurial, high-energy environment that rewards bold thinking and genuine collaboration.
About the Role
Reporting directly to the CEO and serving as a key member of the Executive Leadership Team, the Chief People and Culture Officer (CPCO) will be responsible for architecting and executing strategies that foster a high-performing, values-driven, and future-ready organisation. This includes designing integrated HR, talent, culture, and transformation initiatives, as well as driving cultural integration through mergers and acquisitions. Operating in a publicly listed environment, you will ensure people practices align with governance and disclosure obligations.
You will lead a large, capable P&C team spanning Business Partnering, People Services, Learning and Organisational Development, Talent Acquisition, and Change Management.
About Success
Success in this role means enabling business growth by designing and embedding HR solutions that drive performance, accountability, and cultural strength. You'll balance rigour with agility, and through trusted, authentic leadership, position P&C as a true enabler of commercial outcomes and long-term organisational success.
About You
You are a seasoned and strategic people leader with executive-level experience in large-scale, complex organisations with unionised workforces. You bring proven ability to lead capability uplift, succession planning, and talent management strategies, coupled with deep expertise in industrial and employee relations and workforce governance.
You thrive on complexity and are energised by fast-paced, growth-oriented environments. Comfortable engaging with staff at all levels, you are an authentic, credible leader who inspires trust. You combine commercial acumen with genuine care for people and are highly skilled in leading through influence, building leadership pipelines, and preparing the workforce for the future.
About Culture & Benefits
This organisation prides itself on its unique, people-first culture. Known for being hands-on, humble, and high-performing, they believe in solving complex problems together and maintaining a sense of humor. A strong sense of care—for customers, communities, and colleagues—underpins everything they do.
This is a rare opportunity to step into a high-impact role with broad scope and genuine influence, where your contribution will shape the organisation for years to come. If you're looking to lead boldly, deliver lasting impact, and work alongside a passionate executive team, this could be the opportunity for you.
