You’ll lead end to end recruitment across a diverse range of trade, operational, professional and leadership roles, with a strong focus on high-volume recruitment, proactive talent sourcing and hard to fill positions.
You’ll need to be more than a job-ad poster - you’ll build talent pipelines, proactively engage candidates, tap into new talent pools and work closely with leaders to find the right people – even when the talent isn’t actively looking.

Lead end-to-end recruitment across trade, operational, professional and leadership roles
- Partner with leaders on role scoping, selection decisions and market expectations
- Manage multiple vacancies and competing priorities while maintaining a high-quality candidate experience
- Build and maintain talent pipelines, including early careers, hard-to-fill roles, and international candidates
- Drive improvements to recruitment systems, processes and reporting
- Attend networking, career and industry-related events across the company and broader region
What you’ll bring:
-
Proven experience in high volume end to end recruitment or talent acquisition
- Strong stakeholder engagement and influencing skills
- Practical, organised and solutions-focused approach
- Sound understanding of fair and compliant recruitment practices
- Flexibility and willingness to travel as required
- Experience recruiting in regional, trade, industrial or operational environments (highly regarded)
- Experience in migration and international recruitment, including managing visa processes (highly regarded)
Why join us?
This is an opportunity to take ownership of recruitment across a growing and diverse business, working closely with leaders and having a direct impact on who we bring through the doors. You’ll have the variety of recruiting across high-volume, specialist and leadership positions, while having the freedom to be proactive try new sourcing strategies and build recruitment capability across the business. This opportunity will provide the chance to partner closely with the business and our leaders, while also putting your own stamp on our recruitment processes, talent pathways and employer brand.
