- Partner with leaders on WHS compliance and safety-related guidance
- Support remuneration reviews, EVP initiatives and policy updates
- Work cross-functionally with Payroll, Talent, Education, Safety and more

**What You'll Bring**

- Strong relationship-building and communication skills
- Confidence navigating sensitive matters with integrity and care

- A current Employee Working with Children Check (or willingness to obtain)

**Why Join Only About Children?**

At OAC, you'll be part of something bigger - a place where your work has real purpose, and your growth is genuinely supported. We offer:

- A hybrid working model with flexibility to work from home and our St Leonards office
- Sector-leading leave benefits, including 2 wellbeing days and the option to buy extra leave
