Jobs in HR

Our client is a rapidly growing construction and services organisation expanding through both organic growth and acquisition.

They are seeking an experienced Employment Hero specialist to review a partially completed implementation, optimise payroll and HR processes, strengthen governance, and establish scalable workflows that support future growth.

The Organisation has a Payroll Officer and a Outsourced Payroll provider, so this role is not about transacting payroll it is the HRIS interaction and the broader HRIS implementation.

• Several payroll runs every week across four employing entities
• Multiple EBAs each with its own rules and allowances that need to be configured and automated
• Payroll data issues arising before it reaches the outsourced payroll provider, including inconsistent site processes, timesheet accuracy and manual amendments
• Onboarding and offboarding gaps, including employees remaining active or on payroll after departure
• Governance and security concerns, including user permissions and visibility of salary information

• Diagnose whether issues come from system configuration, process design, user behaviour, training or approval controls
• Configure and automate EBA and award rules, and optimise pay runs across all entities
• Streamline and document onboarding and offboarding, and support a newly appointed HR / Office Coordinator to own them
• Review access profiles, permissions, approval pathways and segregation of duties
• Build workflow automation, self-service and manager approvals that people will use
• Lift stakeholder capability and system adoption
• Leave behind a scalable structure that supports continued acquisition-driven growth

This is a hands-on and strategic assignment, not system administration.

• Stable, repeatable payroll with significantly less manual intervention
• Accurate EBA rule configuration and faster payroll turnaround
• Streamlined onboarding and robust offboarding
• Stronger access controls, clear approval paths and reduced risk

Essential

• Deep Employment Hero expertise, including implementation and remediation or optimisation projects
• Experience in complex, multi-entity payroll environments
• EBA interpretation and configuration

• Strong stakeholder engagement skills

Highly desirable

• Construction, manufacturing or other blue-collar workforce experience
• Acquisition integration experience
• Payroll transformation projects
• Governance and compliance expertise

• Meaningful work with a visible before and after
• A business that has already invested in the technology and is committed to getting it right
• A growing, acquisitive organisation where your work will have lasting impact

This role is an immediate start. Initial Contract until Feb 27 (possibility to extend). $ excellent daily rate $
