• Participate on recruitment panels, providing insights to help ensure fair and culturally informed assessments of candidates as required.
• Support onboarding processes, including the coordination and processing of pre-employment checks (e.g. police checks, working rights, health assessments), ensuring these are communicated in a respectful way.
• Build and maintain strong, relationships with internal and external stakeholders, including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities and organisations, to help meet recruitment needs and strengthen trust.
