Joining a smart, supportive and collaborative team, you'll work within a diverse school environment that values professionalism, integrity and mutual respect.

The school offers a warm culture, highly engaged staff and a strong sense of purpose.

The Role

Reporting directly to the Director of People & Culture, you will be responsible for overseeing HR operations, enhancing processes and ensuring best practice in employee relations.

The ideal candidate will bring:

  • Demonstrated experience as an HR Business Partner
  • Strong process management and project delivery skills
  • Deep expertise in employee relations, conflict resolution and coaching
  • Strong influencing skills and ability to engage effectively with teaching and senior staff
  • Adaptability in environments without fully integrated HR technology
  • Tertiary qualifications in HR, Business or a related discipline (highly regarded)
Why Join?

  • Five weeks' annual leave, including Christmas shutdown
  • Two additional leave days (Cup Weekend & November 15)
  • Flexibility of start/finish times - this role is onsite full time
  • Supportive, high calibre team with a strong sense of purpose
  • Opportunity to make a measurable impact on HR processes and culture in an esteemed educational environment
