  • Resilience and confidence to work with diverse teams in a construction setting
  • Strong knowledge of Australian employment law, EBAs, and IR/ER practices
  • Experience with restructures, redundancies, and change processes
  • Very solid experience using HRIS
  • A proactive, energetic personality with excellent communication skills
  • A desire to grow, learn, and take ownership of your role
  • Reliability and the ability to juggle competing priorities
  • Willingness to travel interstate regularly (2x/month)
  • Full-time and unrestricted Australian working rights (essential)
