Western Australia | People Operations | Full time
Are you an experienced HR professional looking to step into a more consultative, business-partnering role within a large, complex organisation? This is an opportunity to join a progressive, high-performing People Operations team supporting leaders across Ramsay Health Care's Western Australia sites.
This role will suit someone who enjoys operating with autonomy, building strong stakeholder relationships and applying sound HR judgement within a regulated, fast-paced environment.
About The Role
As an HR Officer, you will partner closely with Health Care Managers and senior leaders across multiple sites, providing end-to-end HR operational and advisory support.
While the role has a strong foundation in employment lifecycle management and contracting, it extends well beyond transactional HR. You will be trusted to interpret industrial instruments, provide practical advice, manage change processes and ensure a high-quality experience for both leaders and employees.
You will be locally embedded, with the support and scale of a national People Operations function behind you.
Key Responsibilities
* Partner with hiring managers to manage the end-to-end offer, contracting and onboarding process across multiple WA sites
* Interpret and apply WA Enterprise Agreements, Awards and employment legislation to provide accurate, practical advice to leaders
* Manage job change processes, contract variations and employment amendments with a strong focus on compliance and risk mitigation
* Act as a trusted first point of contact for managers, providing guidance on policies, procedures and people processes
* Coordinate and complete pre-employment and compliance checks in line with healthcare requirements
* Maintain accurate and confidential employee and payroll documentation across HR systems
* Support continuous improvement of HR processes, identifying inefficiencies and opportunities to enhance the manager and employee experience
* Provide HR systems support and coaching to managers and senior stakeholders
Skills And Experience
To be successful in this role, you will bring:
* Demonstrated experience in a Human Resources Officer, Senior HR Administrator or junior HR Business Partner role
* Sound working knowledge of Awards, Enterprise Agreements and employment legislation, ideally within a complex or highly regulated environment
* Confidence operating autonomously and exercising judgement when advising leaders
* Strong stakeholder management skills, with the ability to influence and build credibility with managers
* Excellent time management and prioritisation skills, managing competing deadlines across multiple stakeholders
* A proactive, solutions-focused mindset with a commitment to process improvement and quality outcomes
* High attention to detail and the ability to identify, escalate and resolve issues appropriately
* Experience in healthcare or another compliance-heavy industry (e.g. aged care, government, education) will be highly regarded
* Workday, PageUp, SmartRecruiters and Chris21 experience also highly regarded
Qualifications
Tertiary qualifications in Human Resources or a related discipline (or working towards).
