Senior, strategic HR role part-time (0.6 FTE)
About Our Client This organisation is a well-established and respected name within the FMCG industry. The Melbourne-based commercial functions play a critical role in driving growth and require an HR partner who understands pace, complexity and commercial decision-making.
Job Description This is an unusual and highly attractive role - a senior, strategic HR Business Partner position designed from the outset to operate effectively three days per week. You will partner with Sales, Marketing, Finance and Procurement leaders, working at a genuinely strategic level while also handling complex ER matters and organisational challenges as they arise. This is not an "HR adviser" role compressed into fewer days - it is a senior role with clear scope, autonomy and expectations.
You’ll be a trusted advisor to leaders, bringing commercial acumen, calm judgement and practical HR expertise to fast-moving business decisions. Key accountabilities include:
Acting as the primary HR partner to Melbourne-based commercial leadership
Providing strategic advice on organisational design, workforce planning and performance
Coaching leaders through people decisions, leadership challenges and change
Managing complex ER matters with confidence and sound judgement
Leading end-to-end recruitment for commercial roles
Supporting engagement, wellbeing and leadership capability initiatives
Delivering core HR processes while contributing to broader HR priorities
