  • Advantage: exposure to New Zealand workplace law.
  • Strong writing skills, attention to detail, and ability to simplify complex information.
  • Self-driven, accountable, and comfortable working remotely.
  • Driver's licence and Australian residency.

The Right Fit

  • Balances professionalism, empathy, and commercial realism.
  • Enjoys diverse, end-to-end consulting across HR and WHS.

Why Business 360?
