Your new company

A nationally recognised services organisation delivering essential operations across a range of industrial sectors. Known for its commitment to ethical standards, operational excellence, and regulatory compliance, the business is seeking a dedicated Compliance Officer to join its Risk division and support its national footprint.

Your new role

Reporting to the Head of Risk, you'll play a pivotal role in ensuring the organisation meets all legal, regulatory, and contractual obligations across multiple service lines. This is a hands-on compliance role with exposure to licensing, audits, policy development, and contractor governance.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Managing company and site-specific licenses and registrations (e.g. labour hire, security, cleaning, construction, defence).
  • Monitoring expiry dates and maintaining central registers for licenses and employee clearances.
  • Preparing and lodging the Modern Slavery Statement and ensuring compliance with Fair Work, WHS, and ISO standards.
  • Overseeing compliance systems and platforms ensuring records are accurate and audit-ready.
  • Acting as the primary liaison for client, ISO, and external audits, including managing submissions to compliance portals.
  • Ensuring subcontractor compliance across construction and maintenance projects, including WHS and Principal Contractor obligations.
  • Developing and maintaining policies such as Code of Conduct, Anti-Bribery, Privacy, and Environmental Sustainability.
  • Investigating breaches and non-conformances, documenting corrective actions, and escalating significant issues.
  • Coordinating compliance training and inductions for employees and contractors.
  • Supporting continuous improvement initiatives and maintaining compliance dashboards and reports.

What you'll need to succeed

  • 3-5 years' experience in compliance, governance, or quality management.
  • Industry experience in construction, facilities, or security (preferred).
  • Strong understanding of Fair Work, WHS, ISO standards, and Modern Slavery legislation.
  • High attention to detail and ability to manage multiple compliance streams.
  • Excellent communication, stakeholder engagement, and analytical skills.
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office and compliance platforms

What you'll get in return

  • Competitive salary package in the range of $100,000 - $130,000 + Super (TBC).
  • Opportunity to transition into a permanent role based on performance.
  • Supportive team environment with national exposure.
  • Career development opportunities in a growing, purpose-led organisation.
