About this opportunity

As the People Operations Lead, you will play a vital role in supporting the People Experience Pillar by delivering a consistent and engaging employee experience across all stages of the employee lifecycle. This generalist role requires someone with a strong foundation in HR practices and the ability to work proactively across a broad range of responsibilities, from onboarding and compliance to employee engagement.

Based in our Heatherton office, you'll join a collaborative and values-driven team where your HR expertise will make a meaningful impact.

  • Opportunity to shape processes, policies, and culture.

Key Responsibilities

  • Champion Dovida's culture by promoting our values and building trust and connection in every interaction.
  • Manage employment documentation and compliance, including audits, wage reviews, and accurate record-keeping.
  • Oversee the full employee lifecycle – from onboarding and development to performance, engagement, and retention.
  • Drive team engagement and wellbeing through WHS coordination, return-to-work support, and impactful quarterly events.
  • Contribute as a key member of the Senior Leadership Team, providing strategic input and supporting organisational goals.
  • Effectively leading direct reports as part of day-to-day operations

About you

  • Formal HR qualifications with 5 + years' experience in a generalist role.
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to manage conflict effectively.
  • Experience in leading and managing direct reports.
  • A customer-focused approach, ensuring high-quality support to all stakeholders.
