Overview
Hello. We're Virgin Australia. We're the airline that's always done things a little different. Our way. The Virgin way. We're on a mission to make flying better than 'nice'. And to do that, it takes a team of talented people who are passionate about customer experience, doing the right thing always, with a focus on safety – in the air, on the ground and in our workplaces. A team who values real diversity and inclusion, in a big brand with big ambitions.
What you'll be doing:
We've got an exciting opportunity to join our Airport Experience team at Brisbane Airport as a Crew Culture Manager where you will have the chance to lead culture where it counts.
As the Crew Culture Manager, you'll be at the heart of our award winning Guest & Ramp Services teams, recently recognised as Best Airline Staff Service in Australia/Pacific. Based right where the action happens, you'll bring our people strategy to life with energy, empathy, and your unique Virgin flair.
With up to 6 direct reports and around 600 incredible airport based team members under your wing, you'll shape the employee experience, lift the vibe, and help our culture continue to soar. You'll play a key role in supporting teams who make travel magic happen every day, and walk away knowing you've made a real impact.
To thrive in this role, you'll need solid experience in industrial and employee relations, including case management, and a confident understanding of workplace legislation. A strong background working with unions is also highly regarded, as you'll be partnering closely with stakeholders to foster a collaborative and positive work environment.
You'll be great in this role if you:
* Bring a tertiary qualification in HR, business management or equivalent leadership experience to the table
* Have a genuine passion for people and a sharp instinct for building and nurturing workplace culture.
* Thrive in fast-paced, customer-facing environments and have experience leading large teams (aviation experience is a bonus)
* Feel confident navigating all things HR—from everyday people matters to complex case management and everything in between
* Have solid experience in industrial and employee relations, with a strong understanding of workplace legislation and processes
* Know how to build strong, respectful relationships with unions and stay calm and constructive under pressure
* Are a natural communicator, a values led leader, and someone who brings a coaching mindset to every conversation
* Collaborate with ease, bring resilience to the table, and know how to keep things grounded, even when things get busy
