HR Officer - Part-Time

We've partnered exclusively with a well-established, privately owned logistics and warehousing business in Brisbane's inner north to recruit a capable and proactive HR Officer on a part-time basis.

With a workforce of around 40 employees and casuals, this business has grown steadily over several decades, offering reliable, tailored services to its customers. It's a collaborative, close-knit environment, with a strong culture of respect, accountability, and continuous improvement.

About the Role

Reporting to a highly experienced Operations Manager who leads Finance and HR, this newly created role offers the chance to step into a broad and meaningful HR position where your impact will be visible and valued.

This is a hands-on generalist opportunity ideal for someone looking to take the next step in their HR career, particularly if you're confident with award interpretation and have a practical, down-to-earth approach.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Support end-to-end recruitment and onboarding, including probation check-ins
• Assist with performance management and training initiatives
• Lead policy review and help implement a long-awaited employee handbook
• Manage HR admin, records, and basic reporting (HR analytics provided quarterly for board reports)
• Work closely with managers on workplace culture initiatives and employee engagement
• Interpret and apply multiple awards across warehousing, manufacturing, and clerical roles
• Contribute to annual remuneration reviews and assist with compliance checks
• Be a trusted support to a leadership team focused on mentoring and culture

As the successful candidate, you ideally possess:

• Solid foundational HR experience, ideally within a blue-collar environment
• Strong knowledge of award interpretation and understanding of employment contracts
• You're proactive, professional, and solutions-focused with excellent interpersonal skills
• You're comfortable working in a business going through ongoing cultural and operational change
• You're confident navigating sensitive employee matters and building rapport across all levels
• You're ready to take ownership while also working collaboratively with a supportive manager

This is a newly created opportunity, offering flexibility to work part-time (circa 30 hours a week) across either 4 or 5 days, with 1 day working from home. You'll enjoy great benefits including 5 weeks annual leave, free onsite parking, and a career with a long-standing business with genuine growth opportunities and a supportive team culture.

This is an exceptional opportunity for a capable HR professional looking to make a real impact, without being lost in the layers of a large corporate. You'll be backed by an experienced and values-driven manager, with the space to grow and the support to succeed.
