This is a hands on, influential role suited to a WHS professional who enjoys partnering with leaders, shaping modern WHS practices and driving meaningful wellbeing outcomes. Psychosocial safety and wellbeing are key priorities, alongside strong governance and practical risk management.
Reporting to the Head of WHS, you will partner closely with Australian based leaders and contribute to selected offshore operations. You will succeed by building trust, influencing without authority and delivering solutions that work in practice.
The Opportunity
As a trusted WHS Business Partner, you will support leaders to build capability, embed fit for purpose WHS systems and deliver practical solutions that genuinely work on the ground. While the organisation has a broader geographic footprint, your primary focus will be Australian operations, with input into group wide consistency and improvement initiatives.
This is a role for someone who is comfortable working with ambiguity, complex stakeholders and competing priorities, and who brings a pragmatic and people focused approach to safety and wellbeing.
Key Responsibilities
- Partner with WHS, HR, quality and compliance teams to embed effective WHS practices across the organisation
- Develop practical tools, guidance and implementation resources to support leaders and operational teams
- Coach and influence leaders on contemporary WHS, psychosocial safety and wellbeing expectations
- Support the development and implementation of psychosocial risk management approaches
- Lead wellbeing initiatives and coordinate the annual wellbeing survey
- Contribute to broader mental health and wellbeing strategies across diverse operational environments
- Support the review, maintenance and continuous improvement of WHS policies, procedures and frameworks
- Assist with risk management methodologies, assurance activities and continuous improvement initiatives
- Prepare clear, meaningful WHS reports and dashboards for senior leadership
- Analyse incidents, trends and workers compensation data to inform decision making and improvement priorities
This opportunity will suit a capable, confident WHS professional with experience in environments such as professional services, financial services, consulting, complex service delivery, education or hospitality.
You will bring:
- Strong WHS technical capability, particularly in psychosocial risk and wellbeing
- Sound analytical skills and confidence working with data and reporting
- High emotional intelligence and strong stakeholder engagement capability
- A pragmatic, commercially aware approach to safety
- The confidence to work autonomously while contributing to strategic improvement
This is an opportunity to step into a visible WHS business partnering role where wellbeing genuinely matters. You will work closely with senior leaders, operate in a collaborative and mature environment, and have the scope to shape WHS practices that are fit for purpose, contemporary and people focused.
