Job description

We’re looking for an experienced and hands-on HR Generalist to join our team and support our growing business.

This is a true generalist position with plenty of variety. You’ll work closely with our HR Manager and leaders across the business, supporting everything from employee relations and industrial relations through to payroll, recruitment, performance management, onboarding and day-to-day HR operations.

We’re looking for someone who is confident working independently, enjoys being close to the business and can provide practical HR support to managers and employees.

What you'll be doing

Providing practical HR advice and support to managers and employees across a broad range of people matters

Supporting employee relations and industrial relations matters, including performance, conduct, attendance, grievances and workplace concerns

Supporting workplace investigations, disciplinary processes, performance improvement plans and formal HR meetings

Providing guidance on employment contracts, policies, modern awards, the NES and Fair Work requirements

Managing end-to-end recruitment, including advertising, screening, interviews, reference checks, offers and contracts

Coordinating onboarding, probation reviews, employee changes and offboarding

Preparing employment contracts, variations, promotion letters and other HR correspondence

Processing Australian payroll and ensuring payroll is completed accurately and on time

Processing salary changes, allowances, deductions, leave, terminations, KPI/incentive payments and other payroll adjustments

Reviewing timesheets and payroll information and resolving discrepancies

Maintaining accurate employee information within our HRIS and payroll systems

Supporting performance reviews and employee development processes

Assisting with HR policies, compliance, workers compensation and return-to-work matters

Supporting employee engagement, wellbeing and recognition initiatives

Contributing to HR projects and continuously looking for ways to improve our people processes and systems

About you

You’ll be someone who enjoys the variety that comes with a generalist HR role and is comfortable moving between an employee relations matter, a payroll deadline, recruitment and everyday employee questions.

Ideally, you will have:

Previous experience as an HR Generalist, HR Advisor or in a similar hands-on HR role

Experience managing or supporting employee relations and performance matters

Good working knowledge of Australian employment legislation, the NES and modern awards

Hands-on Australian payroll processing experience

Experience across recruitment, onboarding, performance management and employee lifecycle processes

Confidence working with managers and providing practical HR advice

Strong attention to detail, particularly when working with payroll and employee data

Strong written and verbal communication skills

The ability to manage confidential and sensitive matters appropriately

Good judgement and an understanding of when a matter needs to be escalated

A proactive approach and the ability to manage competing priorities

A qualification in Human Resources, Employment Relations, Business or a related field would be well regarded.

Experience using Rippling HRIS and/or Rippling Payroll would be a big advantage.

This is a great opportunity for someone who wants a genuinely broad HR role where you can build your experience across the full employee lifecycle.

You’ll have exposure to a wide range of HR matters, work directly with managers and employees, and have the opportunity to take ownership of your work while still having the support of an experienced HR Manager.

If you’re an HR all-rounder who enjoys a fast-moving environment, likes solving problems and wants a role where no two days are quite the same, we’d love to hear from you.
