Sydney, Australia RFBI Full time

**Full-Time Position | Royal Freemasons’ Benevolent Institution (RFBI)**

**Location**: NSW/ACT (with travel to sites as required)

**About Us**

RFBI is a respected not-for-profit provider of aged care, retirement living, and home care services, supporting older Australians across NSW and the ACT. Our mission is to deliver high-quality care and services, underpinned by our proud heritage and commitment to ethical practice, respect, and innovation.

**About the Role**

Do you enjoy building trusted relationships and navigating the “pointy end” of the employment relationship? As a People & Culture Business Partner, you will work closely with our Residential Care, Care at Home, and Retirement Living teams, providing expert advice and hands-on support across all aspects of HR. This is a true business partnering role-no two days are the same. You’ll be the go-to for managers and employees, helping to shape a positive workplace culture and ensure best practice in all things people. This role offers flexibility, as it can be based at any of our RFBI sites, without the need to relocate to our Sydney Head Office.

**Key Responsibilities**:

- Coach and influence managers to drive engagement, capability, and performance across diverse teams.
- Provide pragmatic advice on employee relations, performance management, and complex casework-including difficult conversations, dispute resolution, and union negotiations.
- Partner with leaders to deliver workforce planning, recruitment, onboarding, and retention strategies.
- Support organisational change and drive continuous improvement in HR systems and processes.
- Ensure compliance with employment legislation, industrial instruments, and RFBI policies.
- Foster a safe, respectful, and inclusive workplace that reflects RFBI’s values.

**About You**

You are a confident communicator and natural relationship builder, able to quickly earn trust at all levels. You’re comfortable rolling up your sleeves and getting involved in the tough stuff-whether that’s managing disputes, negotiating with unions, or guiding leaders through challenging conversations. Your influencing and negotiation skills are second to none, and you know how to balance empathy with business outcomes.

**You will bring**:

- Tertiary qualifications in Human Resources or a related field.
- Significant experience in a generalist HR or P&C Business Partner role, ideally in aged care, health, or community services.
- Demonstrated expertise in employee relations and dispute management.
- Exceptional communication, negotiation, and influencing skills.
- Strong organisational and prioritisation abilities. A collaborative, solutions-focused approach-and a sense of humour
- Current unrestricted Australian Driver’s Licence and Nationally Coordinated Criminal Record Check.

**Why Join RFBI?**
- Work with a supportive, fun, and dedicated team who know when to laugh and when to get down to business.
- Be part of an organisation that genuinely values its people and their contribution.
- 17.5% annual leave loading to boost your holiday fund
- Enjoy the variety and challenge of a multi-site, purpose-driven environment.
- Opportunities for professional development and career progression.
- Salary packaging perks (up to $18,550) to increase your take home pay

**Ready to make a difference?**

**Application Deadline: 6 June 2025**

If you’re ready to partner with a passionate team that values both fun and focus, we’d love to hear from you
