As a
membership organisation with over 10,000 members, they are our number one
priority. Working within a supportive team, you will be a trusted advisor,
providing accurate, timely and practical advice predominantly over the phone or
via email to our members.
This is a
role for someone who already understands the realities of workplace relations
advice and can confidently move between legislation, awards, member
circumstances and practical business outcomes. No two days will look the same,
and may include:
- Interpreting Modern Award and
enterprise agreement conditions
- Drafting and preparing advice around
Individual Flexibility Agreements and employment contracts
- Coaching members on disciplinary and
termination processes
- Bargaining and employee consultation
- Providing support to other Advisors,
including assistance with advocacy, research activities and member education.
What you
will bring to the team:
We are
looking for an experienced workplace relations professional who can hit the
ground running. While you will be supported by the team, you will bring the
confidence, judgement and practical experience needed to provide clear advice
from day one. You will have an understanding that goes beyond the textbook,
with the ability to apply employment legislation and industrial instruments to
real-world workplace issues.
- Relevant tertiary qualifications in
Law, Human Resources, Business, Commerce or a related discipline
- Strong working knowledge of the Fair
Work Act, Modern Awards and other employment relations legislation
- Demonstrated experience interpreting
Modern Awards, enterprise agreements and employment contracts in a practical
advisory setting
- Experience providing advice or
coaching on performance management, disciplinary processes, terminations and
other sensitive employment matters
- Sound numerical skills and the
ability to work confidently through pay, entitlement and classification
questions
- Ideally, exposure to Fair Work
Commission processes, including preparation of employer responses and
conciliation framework.
- While not essential, construction
industry experience would be highly regarded.
