Exciting Leadership Opportunity: Senior HR Team Leader – Aged Care Sector
Are you an experienced HR professional who thrives in a fast-paced, people-focused environment? We are seeking a Senior HR Team Leader for a hands-on leadership role within a respected aged care setting. This is not a desk-bound position, it's a chance to be actively involved in every aspect of human resources, supporting both staff and residents on the ground.
You’ll work closely with the Facility Manager and lead a small HR team, taking ownership of day-to-day operations, compliance, and workforce management. If you enjoy rolling up your sleeves and being a visible, approachable leader who makes a direct impact, this is the role for you.
In This Role, You Will:
* Lead recruitment, onboarding, performance reviews, and staff development with a practical, supportive approach
* Be the go-to person for real-time HR advice, coaching managers and team leaders through issues as they arise
* Conduct investigations, manage grievances and disciplinary processes with professionalism and care
* Collaborate with department heads to manage rosters, workforce planning, and training initiatives
* Monitor compliance with employment law, aged care standards, and internal policies
* Actively contribute to creating a positive workplace culture where staff feel heard, supported, and valued
What You Bring:
* A Diploma of Human Resources Management (or similar qualification)
* Demonstrated experience in a senior HR or coordination role
* A solid understanding of Australia’s IR framework, the Aged Care Act, and WHS legislation
* Strong people skills, with the ability to build trust and offer solutions in real time
* Excellent organisational abilities with a detail-oriented, proactive mindset
* Comfort with multitasking in a busy, hands-on environment
* Competence with Microsoft Office and HR systems
Bonus Skills:
* Tertiary qualifications in business or a related discipline
* Experience managing staff across 24/7 rosters
* Background in aged care or healthcare HR
This is a rare opportunity to step into a visible, impactful HR leadership role where your work truly matters — not just to the team, but to the wellbeing of the residents they support.
If you’re ready to lead from the front, apply now and help shape a positive, high-performing aged care workforce. Please click on the link to apply or contact Margherita Colley on 0413 047 779.
