About the role
We are looking for a proactive and dynamic Strategic People Partner at the Coroners Court of Victoria.
The Coroners Court plays a vital role in improving the health and safety of the Victorian community by independently investigating deaths and fires and contributing to the prevention of unnecessary deaths. Court employees have the opportunity to make a significant impact on the community through their dedication to care and respect for families experiencing loss, and commitment to justice and safety.
This is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced HR generalist looking to drive strategic HR initiatives in an environment where you can make a real difference in an inclusive workplace. You will be joining a supportive and collaborative People Partnering team of high calibre HR professionals that value innovation and work collaboratively to share ideas and resources.
As the Strategic People Partner, you will deliver business-driven solutions across the entire employee lifecycle in relation to organisational development, workforce planning, health and safety, wellbeing, leadership development, and employee engagement. You will be the HR lead within the Coroners Court and act as the trusted HR advisor to the CEO and establish collegiate partnerships with the broader executive leadership team. As an experienced HR leader, you will build productive relationships with managers, staff and coroners across the court to provide coaching and guidance on HR matters including employee relations matters, performance management, talent acquisition planning, and health, safety and wellbeing initiatives.
You will be supported by subject matter experts across the People Services function who will partner with you to align people programs and initiatives with organisational priorities. You will also have the opportunity to draw on your expertise to design and tailor projects that align to the specific needs of the Coroners Court.
