Ensure client compliance with employment legislation, awards, and agreements.
Draft and review contracts, policies, and procedures.
Design and deliver ER/IR initiatives (e.g. workforce planning, change management, training, bargaining).
Partner with clients on strategies to improve culture, engagement, and retention.
Mentor and support team members, contributing to a positive and collaborative culture.
About You
Tertiary qualifications in Law, Human Resources, or a related discipline.
Strong technical knowledge of employment legislation, modern awards, enterprise agreements, and Fair Work Commission processes.
Excellent communication skills, with the ability to simplify complex information.
Strong problem-solving skills and commercial awareness.
Ability to manage multiple clients and projects simultaneously.
Proven track record of building authentic, trusted relationships.
Why Join Us?
