You’ll take ownership of work that gives us our competitive edge, including:


Business Partnership & People Strategy:

  • Act as a trusted partner to leaders, providing practical, commercially focused and strategic people guidance.

  • Translate business priorities into practical people strategies, workforce plans and measurable actions.
  • Anticipate and proactively address risks relating to capacity, capability, structure, performance, engagement and leadership effectiveness.
  • Identify opportunities to improve organisational effectiveness and implement solutions that support business performance and mitigate people-related risk.
  • Support organisational and cultural change initiatives through coaching, communication, engagement and action planning.

Talent Management: 

  • Partner with the Talent Acquisition team and hiring managers to attract, assess and appoint high-quality talent, leveraging effective tools, processes and best practices throughout the employee lifecycle.
  • Drive talent retention, succession planning and talent development initiatives, ensuring plans are aligned to business needs and support both individual and organisational growth.
  • Support talent reviews and future-ready capability building across the assigned portfolio, identifying high-potential employees, critical roles and development priorities.
  • Partner with leaders to build sustainable talent pipelines through targeted development plans, stretch assignments, mentoring, coaching and career development opportunities.

 

 Employee Relations & People Risk: 

  • Provide sound employee relations guidance and ensure people matters receive timely attention, appropriate escalation and effective follow-through.
  • Coach managers to identify and address employee relations, performance and workplace concerns at the earliest appropriate stage.
  • Support the resolution of employee relations, policy and procedural matters, ensuring fair, consistent and commercially sound outcomes.
  • Conduct and support investigations into workplace concerns, responding to identified risks and recommending appropriate interventions.
  • Facilitate the early resolution of workplace conflict through coaching, mediation and other appropriate interventions.
  • Partner with leaders across multiple regions and jurisdictions, providing commercially focused HR business partnering support while collaborating with Employee Relations, Legal and local subject matter experts on jurisdiction-specific employment law matters.
  • Ensure people practices and decisions align with applicable employment legislation, company policies and governance requirements.

Performance Management: 

  • Work with managers to identify and address performance issues, including root causes relating to capability, process, leadership and organisational effectiveness.
  • Develop and implement performance improvement initiatives and support plans to improve individual and team performance.
  • Ensure performance management processes are applied consistently and effectively across the portfolio.

Leadership & Capability Development:

  • Partner with leaders and Learning & Development teams to identify capability gaps, skills shortages and development needs across teams and functions.
  • Use people insights and data, talent reviews, workforce plans and business priorities to recommend learning and development interventions that improve individual, team and organisational performance.
  • Support the design, implementation and evaluation of development initiatives aligned to current and future business needs.
  • Partner with leaders to build leadership capability, strengthen people management practices and improve team effectiveness.
  • Contribute to onboarding and induction programmes to support successful integration and long-term employee success.
  • Monitor the effectiveness of development initiatives and promote a culture of continuous learning, accountability and growth.

People Data, Insights & Governance:

  • Use people data to support informed business decisions and measurable action.
  • Guide leaders through regular people-data reviews covering areas such as headcount, attrition, absenteeism and recruitment.
  • Translate trends, exceptions and risks into a clear business narrative rather than presenting data without context.
  • Agree appropriate actions with leaders and track them through to completion.
  • Use data to identify workforce risks, capability gaps, retention concerns and opportunities to improve the employee experience.
