Hobart, Tasmania, Australia Blundstone Australia Pty. Ltd. Full time $90,000 - $120,000 per year

About Us

For over 150 years we have made the toughest, no-nonsense footwear for work and play. We now distribute across six continents and over 70 countries.

We are proudly family owned and operate our Head Office from our home in Hobart, Tasmania. Our products are developed in Hobart and we use the best resources available from all over the world to develop footwear that keeps pushing the boundaries - from iconic elastic-sided boots loved worldwide to gumboots, safety footwear for men and women, heavy industrial footwear and boots for every job in between.

Our people are dedicated and highly skilled and their commitment to quality, innovation and our products has underpinned our success.

About the Role

Based at our Moonah Head Office and reporting to the Group Manager, Legal and Compliance, the Internal Audit Lead will strengthen Blundstone's governance and compliance frameworks by developing and delivering on a risk-based audit program.

This role supports both ISO 9001 Quality Management and the development of an ISO 14001-certified Environmental Management System by coordinating and conducting audits, maintaining schedules, and driving continuous improvement across operational and strategic areas.

Collaboration with teams locally and internationally is key to embedding robust systems that support regulatory compliance, sustainability, and risk management.

Key Responsibilities

  • Develop and execute a risk-based internal audit program, integrating ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 standards.
  • Conduct audits across operational and strategic areas, prioritising high-risk zones.
  • Maintain audit schedules and ensure alignment with certification timelines.
  • Identify and report system gaps, internal control weaknesses, non-conformances, and improvement opportunities. Engage with business units to ensure root cause analysis is undertaken and corrective actions are defined and tracked to completion.
  • Support the operationalisation of management systems and liaise with external auditors.
  • Coordinate auditor training and contribute to projects that enhance governance and assurance.

About You

You're a collaborative audit professional with experience in risk-based auditing and ISO management systems. You bring:

  • Qualifications or experience in risk management, auditing, or related fields.
  • Strong communication and stakeholder engagement skills.
  • Organisational skills and attention to detail, with the ability to manage multiple priorities.
  • Familiarity with compliance frameworks and governance best practices.
  • Experience in manufacturing, retail, or consumer goods is highly regarded.

What We Offer

Join our market-leading, family-owned business in a dynamic and rewarding position, with:

  • Competitive salary package with access to our annual performance bonus program.
  • Opportunities for professional development and certification.
  • Access to our Health and Wellbeing Program, including an onsite gym.
  • The chance to make a real impact on our governance and risk management maturity.
