Position Summary

The Business and Technology Group (BTG) is responsible for most of the AIHW’s corporate enabling

functions including HR, facilities, finance and IT.

Due to the recent rapid growth of the AIHW, BTG is creating a new unit called HR Services and Facilities Unit.

This unit will be responsible for payroll (currently in the Finance Unit), and for recruitment and facilities

(currently in the People and Facilities Unit). It will consist of about 10 staff. This new unit will work closely

alongside the People and Culture Unit, which will have responsibility for all other HR matters.

Under general direction from the Group Head, you will:

- Oversee the payroll function, which is staffed in-house and uses Frontier’s iChris payroll system in

the cloud.
- Oversee the recruitment function, which uses Acendre software.
- Oversee the facilities function, which is responsible for supporting 4 office leases and providing

reception services to the AIHW’s main Canberra office.
- Work closely with the Head of the People and Culture Unit on matters that require the close

cooperation of both units (e.g. using the payroll system for HR reporting, WHS matters requiring

action by the facilities team, SES recruitment).
- Provide advice to the Executive on payroll, recruitment and facilities matters.

Selection Criteria

1. Experience delivering HR services in the Australian Public Service, including payroll and preferably

recruitment services, in a timely and accurate manner

2. Excellent written and spoken communication skills

3. Very good interpersonal skills and staff leadership experience

4. Experience advising the senior executive on HR matters

How to apply

the role. Your response should align with the position summary and selection criteria information

above and must be no more than 750 words.

2. Your current CV and the names of two referees.
