Hamilton Island is a large and diverse hospitality operation, bringing together hotels, restaurants, tourism experiences and operational teams within one unique island environment. Behind these experiences is a substantial workforce and a People team supporting leaders through the complex, fast-moving employee matters that come with operating a major tourism destination.
We're looking for an experienced Employee Relations Advisor who can confidently navigate this environment. This is a hands-on professional role where you'll manage multiple workplace investigations and employee relations matters concurrently, providing practical, timely advice to leaders while balancing legislation, Modern Awards, company policy, procedural fairness and the realities of a fast-paced hospitality operation.
