People Partner

**Why MXstore?**

We are a team of fun and fast-paced people who love pushing boundaries and building value in the industries we play in. We are driven by a passion for e-commerce and for people, especially the customers and team members who keep us going. Our approach to business (and life) is underpinned by a tried and tested set of core values that permeate everything we do:
**Be a good human**:

- Good humans are genuine, they care about people and they have a positive impact on the team. We choose to be them and to work with them

**Foot forward first**:

- Anyone can step up and lead the way to keep us moving forward. With a relatively ‘flat’ structure we need people who are excited to do the job that needs to be done.

**Kaizen**:

- It’s Japanese for ‘Continuous Improvement’. We continually iterate and adapt by seeking out feedback, challenging the status quo and asking ‘why not?’.

**Embrace growth and change**:

- We see change as motivating, necessary and a reason to build new capabilities. Challenges and setbacks become learning opportunities when you have a growth mindset

**Communicate with equality and empathy**:

- We are all equal as human beings, so listen with an empathetic ear and speak with kindness. That’s what a good human would do.

**The Opportunity**

We are looking for a motivated and adaptable People Partner to join our evolving People Team. Two of us are going on parental leave later this year, so we are looking for someone who is keen to collaborate with us now and in the future, while also holding down the fort in our absence

As a small team in a business that is growing in size and complexity, you will have plenty of opportunities to bring your ideas and expertise to the table in pursuit of our team’s goals:

- To coach and support leaders across the business to effectively lead and develop their people
- To ensure the business’s foundations (e.g. core values) are alive and well
- To bring a people ‘lens’ to business strategy
- To use our expertise and data to ensure ‘Kaizen’ (see above) in the People spaceTo ensure we comply with the relevant external requirements
- This role will encompass both strategic and hands-on work across all areas of the People function in order to achieve these goals. While we’re a full team, we’ll work collaboratively to each other’s strengths. The rest of the time, you’ll be working autonomously and owning it all, with a specific focus on some priority outcomes:

- Decentralising people leadership to where it happens - in teams
- Increasing the capability of our leaders to lead (as above)
- Increasing the capability of our people to achieve the goals we (and they) have set for the future
- Improving the transfer of business knowledge and ‘DNA’ between peopleMaintaining the ‘light touch’ BAU and compliance activities we have in place

**About You**

This isn’t your typical HR role, so we’re not looking for a typical HR person The way we operate is a little unconventional at times, so it’s critical that you’re a deep thinker who can strategise novel solutions that suit our business. We’re also looking for someone who:

- Is aligned through and through with our core values, as you’ll be a champion for them
- Leads through influence and puts the time into building strong relationships
- Is skilled in ‘teaching how to fish’ - upskilling leaders of all levels of ability and experience to run effective teams, develop people and problem solve when required (you may even have training/facilitation skills)
- Can operate in ambiguity, be comfortable moving at a fast pace, and adaptable to the way we do things
- Can balance strategic oversight and leader support with being hands on when required
- Can work autonomously and as part of a team (you will also have a part time team member to support)
- Has a solid working knowledge of all things employment (legislation, best practice etc.)Is quick to pick up new technology (especially Deputy, Asana, Slack)

**The Perks**

This is an amazing opportunity to join a dynamic and fast-growing business, where you'll be surrounded by positive people who love to learn and do things differently. You'll enjoy real growth and development opportunities, an epic HQ in Burleigh Heads and a fun, social work environment
