Build trusted relationships with senior leaders, providing strategic and risk-informed advice to navigate workforce challenges and support effective decision-making. Maintain strong operational oversight across Workplace Relations and Business Partnering, ensuring priorities, workloads and complex matters are actively managed through to resolution. Contribute to enterprise bargaining and lead key workforce and organisational projects that strengthen capability and service delivery. Advocate for the University's interests, working with investigators and legal counsel and representing UniSC at tribunals, commissions and other external forums as required.  About you You’re an experienced and pragmatic people leader who gets genuine satisfaction from building capable teams while staying close to the work. You know how to set expectations, prioritise competing demands, coach experienced professionals and create an environment where people are accountable, supported and confident making difficult decisions. You're equally comfortable stepping into the detail. Whether supporting a team member through a difficult case, working alongside a senior leader on a sensitive workforce issue, or personally taking the lead on a complex or high-risk matter, you're willing to roll up your sleeves and help get to an outcome. You'll bring significant experience navigating complex workplace relations environments, including sensitive conduct matters and gender-based violence, sexual harassment or related harmful behaviours. You combine empathy and trauma-informed practice with procedural fairness, sound judgement and a clear understanding of organisational risk. Calm under pressure, you bring clarity to complexity and look for practical ways forward. You're a collaborative, resilient and considered leader who builds confidence and capability in others while remaining accountable for delivering outcomes. You will possess:  A relevant qualification in human resource management, employment law, industrial relations or a related discipline, supported by a commitment to ongoing professional development.
