• attraction, recruitment and retention strategies and systems;
• talent management and workforce planning;
• remuneration, benefits and HR compliance;
• organisational development and change management initiatives;
• leadership and development of a small student services/HR admin team.

Applications are invited from senior HR professionals with relevant tertiary qualifications and proven experience building purposeful people and culture capability, partnering and frameworks. Team leadership experience, or the readiness to step into a leadership role, IR/ER, policy development, workforce planning, leadership and culture development experience will be important.

Education sector experience, or a comparable human services domain will be well regarded. Authenticity, agility, engaging leadership, highly effective interpersonal skills and strategic thinking capabilities are important qualities for success.

This is an outstanding opportunity for a consummate people and culture professional looking to play a key role as part of a thriving and progressive educational community with a highly regarded independent school.
