Docklands, Victoria, Australia Medibank Private Limited Full time $80,000 - $120,000 per year

You're only human.   

It's a strange thing to say, because us humans are capable of incredible things. And at Medibank, we know our greatest potential lies in the people who work with us.   

We strive to make real, fundamental change, driven by a simple purpose: to create the best health and wellbeing for all of Australia.  

The Opportunity

The role

We are on the lookout for a Workplace Relations Advisor to join our People, Culture and Sustainability team in this permanent part time role (0.8 FTE).

This role sits within a supportive, dynamic team and will provide strategic, expert advice across a wide range of workplace and industrial relations matters including:

    • employee conduct
    • policy development
    • organisational change
    • employment contracts
    • acquisitions and divestments
    • case management
    • internal employee investigations
    • legislative and award interpretation
    • enterprise bargaining
    • WR representational work at external tribunals including the Fair Work Commission and discrimination tribunals

This is a role with variety, pace, and impact — you'll work across the business, solving complex problems and influencing outcomes that matter. We value fresh thinking, adaptability, and a willingness to challenge traditional approaches.

Now, who are you? 

We're looking for someone who has:

  • Strong experience in IR/WR within a large organisation
  • Practical, open-minded approach to complex issues
  • Familiarity with the Fair Work Act and modern awards
  • Excellent stakeholder engagement and influencing skills
  • A practical, adaptive and open-minded approach 
  • Familiarity with the Fair Work Act and modern awards 
  • Fresh thinking aligned with evolving work practices (e.g., 4DWW) 

Why Medibank? 

We're passionate about health and wellbeing — for our customers and our people. That means flexibility in how and where you work, plus the opportunity for you to join a team that's currently trialling a 4-day work week (including part-timers) to give you more time to focus on what matters most outside of work.

Imagine working with us 

We understand that work means different things to everyone...  We know happy, healthy people make great teams, and great teams put more heart into each customer and patient interaction. And that's why we're reinventing work.    

Imagine a workplace where work didn't feel like work. A workplace where you could shape when and where you work to have more impact. Where flexible working isn't a buzzword, it's a reality.  

Imagine a workplace that helps you and your family thrive.  Where connection, personal development and health and wellbeing are front of mind. To learn more about our benefits go to 

For you, work should help you Live Better. It should bring you fulfillment and joy. And with Medibank, it could. 

Inclusion and Accessibility  

We believe in everyone's potential and strive to make Medibank inclusive for all because different perspectives make us better. We encourage applications from everyone, including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander candidates, those with disabilities, and LGBTQIA+ community including transgender and gender diverse applicants.
