Lead People, Culture & Change During a Major Growth and Integration Journey

Perth, WA
$200,00+ Package (dependent on experience)

Are you a senior HR professional who has successfully operated in both a standalone business and a multinational organisation?

Do you thrive partnering with senior leaders, developing capability, navigating organisational change and building high-performing teams?

Atom Resources has been exclusively engaged to appoint a Senior HR Business Partner for a well-established Australian engineering and manufacturing business servicing the mining and resources sector.

Following a recent acquisition by a global industry leader, the business is entering an exciting phase of integration, growth and organisational development.

This is an opportunity to play a highly influential leadership role, helping shape the future people strategy of the business while partnering closely with operational leaders, executive stakeholders and the broader APAC leadership team.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

This is not a traditional HR Business Partner role.

The successful candidate will become the key local HR leader supporting the business through:

• Organisational growth and transformation
• Leadership capability development
• Workforce planning and succession planning
• Employee and industrial relations
• Performance and talent management
• Cultural integration and change management
• Organisational design and capability uplift

The role also presents genuine long-term opportunities as the business continues to evolve and grow within a larger multinational group.

The Opportunity

Reporting into senior leadership, you will:

• Partner closely with operational leaders and executive stakeholders
• Provide advice on strategic and operational HR matters.
• Support ongoing integration into the broader global business.
• Coach and develop leaders across all levels of the organisation.
• Drive leadership capability and workforce development initiatives.
• Identify organisational capability gaps and implement development plans.
• Lead workforce planning and succession planning activities.
• Manage complex employee and industrial relations matters.
• Support remuneration, performance and talent management processes.
• Build employee engagement and organisational capability.
• Drive cultural alignment and organisational effectiveness initiatives.
• Contribute to future people strategy and business growth plans.

What We're Looking For

We are specifically seeking candidates who combine both:

Standalone HR Leadership Experience

You have successfully operated as a:

• Senior HR Business Partner
• HR Manager
• People & Culture Manager
• Head of HR

within a standalone or medium-sized business where you've taken ownership across the full HR function.
Whilst you will manage a HR Administrator and Recruiter the stand alone experience will help.

Multinational Experience

You have also worked within larger multinational environments and understand:

• Global governance structures
• Matrix reporting environments
• Organisational integration
• Corporate HR frameworks
• Change management and transformation

This combination is important as the business continues its transition into a larger multinational structure.

Strategic Leadership & Business Partnering

You have a proven track record partnering directly with:

• CEOs
• General Managers
• Directors
• Operational Leaders

You are confident providing advice and guidance across:

• Workforce planning
• Leadership capability
• Talent and succession planning
• Change management
• Employee and industrial relations
• Culture and engagement
• Organisational effectiveness

Most importantly, you are comfortable challenging thinking, influencing stakeholders and helping leaders make informed people decisions that improve business performance.

Experience We'd Like To See

You will likely bring experience from one or more of the following sectors:

• Manufacturing
• Mining
• Resources
• Heavy Industry
• Operational Blue-Collar Environments

Along with demonstrated experience in:

• Employee Relations
• Industrial Relations
• Leadership Development
• Workforce Planning
• Organisational Change
• Succession Planning
• Leadership Coaching
• Performance Management
• Organisational Capability

Highly regarded:

• Acquisition, merger or integration experience.
• Experience supporting founder-led businesses transitioning into larger organisations.
• Experience building leadership capability frameworks.
• Experience identifying and closing organisational skills gaps.

The Person

We are looking for someone who is:

• Comfortable operating autonomously.
• Highly credible with operational and blue-collar workforces.
• Passionate about developing leaders and teams.
• Looking for a long-term career opportunity.
• Motivated by helping businesses grow and evolve.

This organisation places a high value on people who are visible, authentic and capable of building trust quickly across all levels of the business.

What's On Offer

• Senior leadership level influence.
• High visibility across the organisation.
• Genuine opportunity to shape people strategy.
• Stable and growing industrial business.
• Backing and support from a global organisation.
