People Business Partner - 12 Month FTC

About the Company:

This is a business with a bold purpose and a strong presence in their booming industry – known for creating welcoming, people-first environments that truly make a difference in people’s lives.

They are deeply values-led, with a culture that’s warm, informal, collaborative, and fast-paced. There’s no hierarchy, no egos – just a shared drive to deliver great outcomes and support each other along the way. It’s the kind of place where you’ll be empowered, challenged, and supported to do your best work.


About the Role: 

This 12-month fixed term People Partner role is a fantastic opportunity to join a high-performing team and step into a portfolio with real breadth and visibility. While the role is linked to a parental leave cover, it’s more than a seat-warmer – there are important relationships to maintain, high-stakes Employment Relations issues to lead, and a few key projects to help shape.

You’ll work closely with leaders across a large, diverse portfolio, providing expert advice on performance, change, and employment relations matters. The focus is mostly on ER – so confidence and capability in this space is key. You’ll also play a coaching role with leaders, lifting capability over time and supporting them to lead well through challenges.

You’ll be part of a talented and grounded People team that works closely and collaboratively. There’s a huge amount of trust, genuine care, and a lot of laughs too.

This is a full-time role. The team values time together in the office, so a minimum of 3 full office-based days per week is essential, with flexibility for the remaining days to be worked remotely.


About You: 

You’re an experienced People Partner with a strong grounding in ER – confident handling everything from performance conversations to restructures, grievances, and investigations. You’re practical, unflappable, and have a way of building trust quickly with operational leaders.

You’ve worked across large, complex portfolios and know how to coach and prioritise, rather than try to do it all yourself. Ideally, you’ve partnered with rostered or frontline workforces, and you’re used to navigating the challenges and pace of those environments.

You work best in a down-to-earth team where trust runs high, the pace is quick, and people support each other. You bring maturity, clarity and a service mindset to what you do – and you’re not afraid to bring a sense of humour to work with you.
