**About Transdev**
- At Transdev, we believe public transport plays an important part in how a city comes to life. Our day to day work influences our families, friends and future generations where they live, work and play. Whatever your role is at Transdev, you contribute to improving the mobility of our customers, and the positive impact this can have on their lives, their community and our environment; and that’s why we are committed to creating a diverse, inclusive and flexible workforce which reflects the community and the customers we serve.

**The role**
- Having recently opened Parramatta Light Rail we are looking for a Head of People and Culture to play a key role in supporting the Senior Leadership Team across both the Sydney and Parramatta networks. Reporting to the Managing Director this role has a significant part to play in supporting and delivering a high performing and engaged workforce that will include performance management, talent acquisition and succession planning.

- In addition to relevant tertiary qualifications your background will include extensive experience in roles requiring a broad level of HR expertise (preferably in transport / high regulated industry). This will include strong (operational) ER/IR experience and implementation of HR policies and procedures. Regardless of industry, your previous experience will include working within unionised environments and leading / supporting EA discussions. Supporting our workforce will require both excellent communications and influencing skills as will the ability to engage with all stakeholders and employee groups.

- In return, we offer competitive pay and benefits and a positive culture that embraces diversity and employee feedback. We genuinely invest in our people and the work you carry out at Transdev touches the lives of your family, friends and future generations alike. Working in a growing, global business will provide diverse career experiences for you to make your mark, push boundaries and reach your maximum potential.
