1 week ago

Fitzroy North, Victoria, Australia Samuels Donegan Full time $90,000 - $120,000 per year

What's the Brief?

We're partnering with a not-for-profit organisation who are on a mission to create an Australia free of poverty to find their next two Business Partners.

These roles are all about working closely with leaders to lift people capability, strengthen leadership, and ensure staff are supported to stay healthy, safe, and engaged. You'll play a trusted role in shaping all aspects of HR - from managing employment risks and driving continuous improvement, through to rolling out people initiatives that make a real impact. It's a chance to partner with purpose, influence positive change, and contribute to meaningful work every day.

Is This Your Perfect Match?

You're someone who brings both heart and smarts to the table. You thrive in fast-paced, ever-changing environments and know how to cut through complexity to make sound, well-researched decisions. You're collaborative by nature, pragmatic in approach, and thrive on building trusted relationships across all levels. With strong leadership skills and a human-centred mindset, you're skilled at engaging others, resolving conflict, and guiding people towards positive outcomes. You balance accountability with empathy, always keeping equity, inclusion, and cultural safety at the forefront. Data-driven yet people-focused, you're motivated by continuous improvement and finding smarter, more efficient ways of working. Most of all, you want to make a real impact - working with purpose, bringing others along the journey, and contributing to a cause bigger than yourself.
