Job Description

The Opportunity

We’re looking for a practical and adaptable People & Culture Manager who enjoys being across the full employee lifecycle — not just strategy, but real day-to-day impact.

Reporting to the Chief Operating Officer, you’ll lead a small team of two (including a Payroll Officer) and partner closely with operational leaders. This role suits someone who likes variety, solves problems quickly, and takes a common-sense approach to HR.

You won’t be stuck behind policies — you’ll be helping managers hire, manage, coach and retain great people while keeping us compliant and improving how we work.

You’ll also play a key role in a major project: moving our HR systems to Dayforce HRIS.

What you’ll be doing:

  • Manage end-to-end recruitment and onboarding across the business
  • Provide practical IR advice and support managers with performance matters
  • Manage WorkCover claims alongside the Compliance Manager
  • Deliver training and support employee engagement and retention initiatives
  • Oversee payroll processes through the Payroll Officer and maintain HR records
  • Support remuneration reviews and ensure compliance with employment legislation
  • Lead improvements to HR processes and help implement the Dayforce HRIS
  • Some interstate travel may occasionally be needed 

Desired Skills and Experience

What We're Looking For:

We don’t need a career corporate HR strategist — we need someone capable, curious and solutions-focused.

You will likely have:

  • 3–7 years HR experience in a generalist or advisory role
  • Confidence giving practical advice to managers
  • Experience with recruitment and performance management
  • Exposure to awards and employment legislation
  • Strong organisation skills and attention to detail
  • Comfort working both independently and collaboratively

Most importantly — you’re approachable, adaptable and comfortable switching between admin, advice and improvement projects.
 

Why Envirolab?

  • Supportive and collaborative leadership team — you won’t be doing HR alone
  • Opportunity to build capability and grow your own skills and experience
  • Exposure to multi-site HR across Australia and New Zealand
  • Variety in your day — operational HR, projects and improvement initiatives
  • On-site parking available 

Interested?

If you enjoy hands-on HR, solving real workplace challenges, and making things work better — we’d love to hear from you.
