Melbourne, Australia Employment Hero Full time

WGA takes pride in designing safe, innovative, and sustainable solutions that stand the test of time, and with four decades behind us, we have grown to be one of Australia’s most highly regarded privately owned consultancies.

As we celebrate our 40th year at WGA, we are proud to have creatively and safely delivered engineering solutions for billions of dollars’ worth of infrastructure projects - from rocket launch facilities to renewable energy projects - from the most advanced sporting venues, learning and health environments - transport on land, sea and in the air.

An exciting new role has been created to support the continued growth of our Victorian business. We are on the lookout for an experienced, ‘hit the ground running’ HR professional to join our fast-paced national People & Culture (P&C) team.

This position will work closely with the Victorian Regional Leadership team, be based in our Melbourne office, and report to the Group P&C Manager based in Adelaide.

The P&C BP will be responsible for providing business partnering to foster a positive workplace experience, drive organisational capability and performance and ensure WGA’s purpose, vision and values are lived and experienced. A key component of this role will be to work as part of the broader P&C team to support the development, implementation, and adoption of people and culture initiatives that support our business strategy.

Key responsibilities will include:

- Provide day to day advice, coaching, recommendations and solutions to leaders and employees to support an inclusive, diverse, engaged and performing team
- Partner with the business to ensure that talent is being optimally managed, ensuring that they have, or are developing, appropriate workforce capability for the future
- Provide expert advice and coordination across all aspects of the employee lifecycle, including performance review, talent, succession, remuneration, training, and development
- Manage end-to-end recruitment, induction, onboarding and offboarding processes to ensure delivery of the workforce plan
- Contribute to the research, development and implementation of group-wide people and culture policies, processes and projects to solve business issues and contribute to implementing the business and P&C strategies
- Prepare P&C correspondence and letters for the region, accurately update HRIS and other systems as required
- Prepare reports to summarise people metrics and drive business success through deriving insights from data and converting insights into meaningful actions

To be successful in this role you will need:

- Relevant qualifications in human resources or a related field and experience in a service-oriented P&C BP role, ideally within professional services/consulting and/or construction environment
- The ability to work collaboratively as part of a small team but to also resolve and take ownership of issues
- Strong stakeholder management, negotiation, facilitation, and communication skills with the ability to engage and influence
- Demonstrated planning and organisational skills, including the ability to prioritise tasks and needs whilst maintaining attention to detail and confidentiality in a matrix organisation
- Intermediate skills and knowledge of the MS Office suite and experience working across HRIS systems (we use Employment Hero, Job Adder and Culture Amp)
- The ability to exercise sound judgement with a mature approach

With a team of over 500 people, WGA provides a rich, diverse, and empowered workplace, and offers you a chance to work alongside some of the best in the business. WGA offers an outstanding working environment that fosters and supports mutual learning, respect, dignity, cultural openness, and an appreciation of differing perspectives and backgrounds. We strive to offer inspiring career paths and a selection of fantastic employee benefits.

Why should you apply? If you enjoy delivering complex challenges, have a solutions-focused mindset, and want to be part of a thriving team, then WGA is for you.
