From Admin to Impact: How AI is Reshaping HR

HR is becoming more complex, time-consuming and costly than it needs to be. For many teams, too much time is still spent on manual processes, leaving less capacity for the work that drives real impact.

To celebrate International HR Day this year, we’re bringing together a panel of experienced HR and people leaders to explore how AI is reshaping the way HR teams operate. Not as a future concept, but as a practical tool already delivering results across people operations.

From reducing administrative burden to improving decision-making, AI is enabling HR teams to operate more efficiently and refocus on what matters most: people. 

You’ll hear directly from Employment Hero customers who are applying AI in their organisations to streamline processes, enhance the employee experience and build more effective, scalable teams. 

In this session, we’ll cover:

• Where time and cost are being lost across the hiring process and how to address it
• How AI can automate high-volume, low-value tasks without compromising quality
• What high-performing HR teams are doing differently in 2026
• Real-world examples of how Australia and New Zealand businesses leverage Employment Hero’s integrated AI features to drive tangible results across their people operations

This session is designed for HR leaders, Heads of People and Culture and people teams looking to operate more efficiently, make better hiring decisions and stay ahead of the changing employment landscape.
