Job description

The best compliance is the kind nobody notices. It’s built into how people work, how studios operate and how clients experience us. It simply feels safe, professional and well run.

At SkinKandy, our objective is to become the world’s most trusted piercing brand. We’ve built strong infection prevention standards and piercing best practice, backed by clinical expertise and a genuine culture of care, across 115+ studios in Australia and New Zealand.

As we continue to grow, we’re creating a new role to make sure those standards are protected, strengthened and consistently delivered across every studio, every day.

About the role

As Compliance & Safety Manager, you’ll bring both a technical and operational lens to compliance across our growing multi‑site network. You’ll turn good standards into practical systems that work in the real world, including:

Managing our risk register and compliance obligations, and tracking actions through to closure

Workplace health and safety across our studios, HQ and warehouse

Skin penetration licensing, council inspections and infection prevention compliance

Compliance audits, incident management and investigations

Compliance training, reporting and continuous improvement

This is a hands-on role. We’re looking for someone who understands what safe, hygienic and compliant operations require, and who can build it so naturally into everyday behaviours, training and operations that it becomes invisible.

About you

You might be a nurse, piercer, beauty therapist or other clinical professional who has developed a strong interest in standards, risk and operational excellence. Or you may come from safety, compliance, quality assurance or operations, and be looking for an opportunity to apply your skills in a business where safety and standards are central to what we do.

What matters most is your ability to understand risk, build practical systems and influence people to consistently do the right thing.

You’ll be someone who:

Thinks practically and commercially, not just technically

Can turn standards and legislation into clear, workable processes

Is confident influencing leaders and frontline teams

Has strong attention to detail without losing sight of the bigger picture

Is comfortable working across a fast-paced, multi‑site environment

Looks for opportunities to improve rather than simply maintain the status quo

Takes genuine pride in creating environments that are safe, professional and well run

Why SkinKandy?

This is a new role at an exciting point in SkinKandy’s growth. We’re an ambitious, fast‑growing business with international expansion ahead, and this role will play an important part in making sure our risk, safety and compliance foundations are strong enough to support it.

You’ll have the opportunity to shape systems, influence standards and build capability across a growing international business.

You’ll also be part of a business that invests in its people, with benefits including:

Significant employee discounts across SkinKandy

Employee Assistance Program (EAP) and wellbeing support

Opportunities for learning, development and career growth

A supportive leadership team that values your expertise

A fast-moving, entrepreneurial environment where there’s real scope to make your mark

The opportunity to be part of SkinKandy’s international growth journey

Based at our HQ support office on the Sunshine Coast, you’ll report directly to our GM Operations and work closely with leaders across the business.

This is an opportunity to build something meaningful, strengthen the foundations of a growing global business and be part of something bigger.
