About us
Hampshire Property Group (HPG) is a family-owned business established in 2006. We own and operate holiday parks, mixed-use communities, and land lease living villages across Australia and New Zealand.
We’re growing quickly, which means we’re building stronger structure and governance as we go, without losing the family feel. Our culture is grounded in Respect, Accountability, Collaboration, Innovation, Quality and Customer Focus, and we’re proud of a supportive, people-first environment where good humans can do their best work.
The opportunity
The HR Manager for ANZ is a pivotal new role that will help us lift consistency, governance and employee relations capability across the business, while supporting our HR Business Partner model as we continue to grow.
This is not a ‘typical’ corporate HR Manager role. Our environment is fast-paced, hands-on and constantly evolving. You’ll be someone who can confidently manage multiple matters at once, simplify the complex, and keep the business moving, while still raising the bar on structure, process and risk management.
What you’ll be responsible for
- Own and uplift our employee relations approach across Australia and New Zealand, providing practical, risk-aware advice and coaching to HRBPs and leaders.
- Partner with the Chief HR Officer on people governance, ensuring policies, frameworks and decision-making processes are fit-for-purpose and consistently applied.
- Strengthen the HRBP operating model across the operational Business Units, clarity of roles, cadence, trackers, reporting, and ‘how we work’ standards.
- Standardise and continuously improve core people processes (e.g., performance and conduct, investigations, probation, exits, onboarding touchpoints, manager toolkits).
- Apply a strong working knowledge of employment law and relevant case law, recommending the most risk-averse path where needed to protect the business.
- Build simple, scalable templates and tools that help leaders act quickly and consistently in a high-volume operational environment.
- Drive a practical continuous improvement mindset across HR, making things simpler, faster, clearer and easier to follow.
About you
- You have either practiced as an employment lawyer, or you bring deep employee relations experience in a senior HR role.
- You’re confident interpreting and applying employment legislation and relevant case law across AU and/or NZ contexts.
- You’re commercially minded, you can balance people outcomes with business risk and operational reality.
- You thrive in fast-paced environments with competing priorities and can stay calm, structured and decisive.
- You are not ‘corporate for the sake of corporate’, you can build governance that actually works in the real world.
- You’re a proactive operator: you see gaps, fix them, and bring people with you.
Why work with us?
- Join a trusted, family-owned and operated business with a long-term vision
- Fully remote role with company-provided IT equipment to set you up for success
- Supportive, collaborative HR team with room to grow and develop
- Multiple ways we recognise and reward our people
- Access to our AI Ambassador program, helping you work smarter and more strategically
- Generous employee discounts to enjoy our Holiday parks across Australia and New Zealand
