Why you’ll love it here:

• Collaborative culture – be part of a close-knit, values-driven team where your ideas are heard
• Meaningful work - you will get to flex your P+C muscles with a wide range of HR issues, tasks and projects
• Mentorship and growth – work closely with a hands-on P&C Manager and a broader high-performing national HR team

• Ideally 3+ years’ experience in a generalist HR role within unionised organisations
• Strong ER/IR understanding, ideally with experience in shift-based or award-covered environments
