Location: Adelaide, SA, AU, 5000 DOCKLANDS, VIC, AU, 3008

At Medibank Group, our brands, Medibank, ahm and Amplar Health, are united by a shared purpose: creating the best health and wellbeing for Australia. We're building a workplace where people can thrive, grow and make a meaningful impact, while helping shape a healthier future for our customers, patients and communities.

Help shape safer, healthier workplaces across one of Australia's leading health organisations.

We're looking for an experienced Health, Safety & Wellbeing Business Partner to join our Health, Safety & Wellbeing Squad and support the continued growth of Amplar Health.

This role supporting diverse healthcare environments including hospital-in-the-home, community, in-home care services and hospital and sub-acute facilities. You'll partner with leaders to identify risks, strengthen safety capability, influence decision-making and drive positive health, safety and wellbeing outcomes.

This is not a traditional corporate safety role.

These are dynamic environments where work is often performed outside of controlled workplaces, requiring a pragmatic and commercially minded safety professional who can confidently navigate complexity and influence stakeholders at all levels.

What you'll do

• Partner with leaders to embed Medibank's Health, Safety & Wellbeing strategy
• Partner with clinical governance and clinical teams to advance health, safety and wellbeing priorities and initiatives
• Provide expert advice on WHS legislation, risk management and compliance
• Lead incident investigations, risk assessments and audit activities
• Analyse safety and people data to identify trends and improvement opportunities
• Develop and enhance our HSW frameworks, policies and programs
• Build strong stakeholder relationships and influence positive safety outcomes

About you

You are a confident, resilient and commercially minded safety professional who can build credibility quickly and navigate complex stakeholder environments.

You’ll bring:

• 6+ years' experience in Health, Safety & Wellbeing
• Prior Health, Safety & Wellbeing experience within a clinical setting
• Experience partnering with leaders in healthcare, community services, emergency services, aged care, disability, justice or other field-based operational environments
• Strong knowledge of Australian WHS legislation and risk management practices
• Advanced reporting and data analysis capability
• Excellent stakeholder engagement and influencing skills
• The ability to work autonomously, challenge constructively and drive outcomes
• Relevant qualifications in WHS, Occupational Health, Risk Management or a related discipline

This role offers the opportunity to make a real impact in a growing healthcare business supporting Australians where they need care most.

We offer:

• Competitive remuneration package
• Flexible hybrid working with no mandated office attendance days
• Our team is currently experimenting with a 9-day fortnight (gift time), creating space in your week to invest in your personal health and wellbeing, professional growth, or the things that help you bring your best self to work
• The opportunity to influence strategy, build safety capability and drive meaningful change across a growing healthcare business
• A supportive and collaborative team environment
• Future career growth opportunities within a large, evolving health business, with the chance to broaden your expertise, increase your impact and grow your leadership capability

Why work for Medibank Group?
