Also of value would be an understanding of health & safety best practice and experience in managing ill & injured workers.

You’ll have a naturally consultative style and a high level of confidence in how you partner with and provide advice to stakeholders. You’ll be comfortable operating in a fast-paced organisational setting and have the natural drive to work autonomously and navigate grey when required.

Finally, you’ll exhibit a tangible appetite for growth and development and be committed to building and refining your knowledge base of workplace relations
