About the Role

Reporting to the GM P&C and partnering closely with the Exec GM Manufacturing, this newly created role provides dedicated support to the Manufacturing division across three key sites in Victoria, New South Wales, and Western Australia.

The role will act as a senior-level business partner, balancing day-to-day generalist activity with forward-looking people strategy. It will require both critical thinking and a hands-on approach, ensuring initiatives are practical, implementable, and deliver real impact.

You will be:

Ideally, your background will include:

  • Strong generalist expertise across areas that include business partnering, learning, performance management and can demonstrate breadth in the solutioning and implementation of people initiatives.
  • Experience developing or leading learning and leadership development programs.
  • The ability to influence, coach, and gain buy-in from senior stakeholders and frontline managers.
  • A solutions-oriented mindset, with the agility to move between strategic projects and operational delivery.
  • Familiarity with unionised workforces and enterprise bargaining agreements or knowledge of industrial frameworks an advantage.

This role will suit a pragmatic, forward-thinking P&C professional who enjoys variety, thrives in complex environments, and can add value by bringing fresh ideas and sound judgement to people challenges.

You'll be stepping into a senior role that makes a visible impact on a core part of the business. In addition to working closely with the Exec GM Manufacturing and GM P&C, you'll have the opportunity to shape culture, capability, and leadership practices across a large and diverse workforce.

Based in the Western suburbs of Melbourne, you will work in a hybrid arrangement and experience day-to-day flexibility. Some interstate travel will be required.
