UnitingSA is a leading South Australian not-for-profit with more than a century of service and impact. With over 1,200 employees and volunteers, the organisation delivers aged care, housing and community services to more than 12,000 people each year across metropolitan and regional South Australia. Building on established learning and education foundations, the organisation is now seeking an experienced leader to strengthen workforce capability, develop its people and support the continued growth and evolution.

As Learning and Workforce Capability Lead, you will shape and deliver an integrated and contemporary approach to learning, leadership development and workforce capability. Reporting to the Senior Manager, Great Client Experience, you will lead a small team of three responsible for learning and education, while driving initiatives that strengthen organisational capability, talent development and career pathways. Working closely with executive and senior leaders, people and culture colleagues and operational teams, you will anticipate emerging workforce needs, develop contemporary learning frameworks and respond to changing technologies and service delivery models. You will also oversee mandatory learning governance, employee onboarding and the continued optimisation of learning systems, ensuring strong operational foundations support broader organisational priorities.

You are an experienced organisational development, learning or workforce capability professional who combines strategic thinking with practical delivery and strong people leadership. You bring demonstrated experience developing capability frameworks, strengthening leadership development and translating organisational priorities into meaningful outcomes. An influential communicator, you build credibility and trusted relationships across diverse stakeholder groups, with the confidence to challenge thinking, navigate complexity and drive change. Proactive and solutions-focused, you have the ability to build stakeholder commitment, maintain momentum and drive initiatives through to successful delivery. As a collaborative and empowering leader, you develop others, foster accountability and create an environment where people can perform at their best. Experience in aged care, community services or a related sector will be advantageous, with transferable experience from other industries equally valued.

This is an opportunity to influence the future of learning and workforce capability within a purpose-driven organisation that values collaboration, wellbeing and continuous improvement. With a supportive leadership team, a positive culture and established foundations to build upon, you will have the opportunity to bring fresh thinking and make a meaningful contribution to UnitingSA's people and future direction.
