Provide oversight of workforce and rostering systems and practices, supporting alignment with approved staffing arrangements, EFT, industrial requirements and operational needs.

Coordinate workforce reporting, compliance and improvement activities, including monitoring workforce trends and supporting organisational initiatives relating to employee engagement, culture, capability and wellbeing.
