Are you ready to shape the future of rural healthcare through people? At MDHS, we're seeking a dynamic Workforce Business Partner to champion high performance, drive strategic workforce initiatives, and support our leaders in building a thriving, values-driven culture.

This is more than a People and Culture (P&C) role — it's a chance to influence change, foster inclusion, and make a meaningful impact across our health service.

What You'll Do

  • Coach and empower managers across the employee lifecycle — from recruitment to succession planning
  • Deliver timely, expert advice on policies, awards, and agreements
  • Lead return-to-work coordination and injury management in partnership with external stakeholders
  • Partner on organisational change initiatives that enhance culture and capability
  • Liaise with unions and employee representatives with professionalism and integrity
  • Contribute to policy development, continuous improvement, and risk management
  • Promote equity, diversity, and psychological safety in every interaction

What You'll Bring

You'll have a passion for Return to Work, Industrial Relations, and/or talent acquisition, with the confidence to navigate challenging workplace matters and the curiosity to keep learning. You're a trusted advisor, a strategic thinker, and a collaborative partner who thrives on building capability and driving positive outcomes.

Why MDHS?

At MDHS, we don't just care for our community — we care for our people. You'll join a team that values innovation, inclusion, and continuous growth. We offer:

  • A supportive leadership team
  • Opportunities for professional development
  • A workplace culture built on respect, compassion, and accountability

Ready to make your mark in rural healthcare? Apply now and help us build a healthier, more connected future — one conversation at a time.
