Senior Manager, Workplace Relations & Compliance
Permanent Full-Time
Sydney
$210k - $220k (Package)
This brief calls for a rare mix: someone who knows enterprise agreements back to front who can also lead a team.
The Opportunity.
This is a newly shaped role within a broader workplace relations team, leading a function in its early stages with plenty still to build.
Much of the work starts with proactive advice on pay and employment entitlements, which can then lead into historical reviews, investigations and the design of remediation methodology. Your team is layered, with senior advisors who run matters independently and compliance officers keen to grow. You’ll work autonomously and act as the escalation point for complex or sensitive matters.
There’s equal weight on working on the function as well as in it. You’ll help design the compliance framework, strengthen governance and reporting and use case data to spot systemic risks early. Relationships span HR leadership, legal, audit and risk, with union engagement alongside your manager.
You.
You’ll bring deep technical expertise in workplace compliance, industrial relations or employment law within a complex, highly regulated enterprise agreement environment. You’ve led remediation programs or historical reviews involving payroll data and can design a methodology that stands up to scrutiny.
A background as an employment lawyer would be well regarded. Just as importantly, you’re a genuine people leader. You can coach a team, set clear expectations and write a sharp report for senior stakeholders. You’re comfortable with a function that is still taking shape and keen to dig in and build it.
- Permanent, Full-time role
- Based in Sydney
- Room for growth as the function matures
