- **HR Administration**: Keep the People & Culture function running seamlessly with timely and accurate admin support.
- **Engagement & Culture**: Drive initiatives such as surveys, check-ins, anniversaries, and engagement campaigns to strengthen connection and culture.

**What We’re Looking For**
- 3-5 years’ experience in HR generalist, advisory, or business partner roles.
- Strong background in employee relations and performance management.
- Solid understanding of compliance, workplace legislation, and best practices.
- Experience across the full HR lifecycle.
- Hands-on exposure to recruitment and blue-collar workforce management (desirable).
- Strong communication and stakeholder management skills — able to influence and coach with confidence.
- HRIS/admin savvy, with a detail-oriented approach and proactive mindset.

**Benefits**

**What’s On Offer**
- Competitive salary + super + annual bonus
