Our client, has offices in Northland and Central Auckland. A well established and successful business, with highly-strategic assets, the business is poised for growth and new business opportunities. With a great company culture and strong leadership, people feel valued and highly motivated.

About The Role

Reporting to a part-time CPO initially, the Head of Human Resources will enjoy working alongside the senior leadership team, with one direct report currently. This is likely to increase with potential business acquisitions and investment opportunities.

The role offers variety with the key areas of responsibility:

• Develop and implement people strategies that support the overall business objectives and foster a positive work culture
• Lead and manage the team to ensure that people policies and practices are in line with the businesses objectives and comply with legal and statutory requirements
• Develop and implement policies and procedures to ensure that employees are managed fairly and equitable and in compliance with company policies and applicable laws
• Develop and implement remuneration and benefit policies and programs that attract and retain top talent while ensuring cost-effectiveness and compliance with legal requirements
• Oversee the administration of employee benefits, including health and wellness programs, and other employee’s systems
• Work with Managers to identify employee training and development needs and implement programs to address those needs
• Provide guidance and support to managers and staff on all people related issues including performance management, employee relations and conflict resolution
• Ensure compliance with all people related legal and regulatory requirements and other applicable laws
• Develop and maintain HR metrics and analytics to measure the effectiveness of HR policies and programs and identify areas of improvement

About You

With a Bachelor’s degree, you will likely have 10+ years experience in HR, and this will ideally have been in a medium to large Industrial, Infrastructure, Manufacturing, Technology company, Import & Distribution business or the Investment sector.

Bringing working knowledge of medium to large company dynamics, you will be able to associate well with others that do not directly report to you. Your experience working in a commercial organisation will be important; as will your drive and proven record of a commitment to excellence and continuous improvement.

You will have a proven ability of working with and influencing staff, as well as internal and external leaders. With strong leadership and management skills, you will be able to point to experience successfully motivating and leading teams.

Our client is keen for someone to ideally be based in Northland but if living elsewhere, you would need to be in the Northland H.O for at least 2 days per week. They can help with finding suitable accommodation for you, for 1 – 2 nights per week, but this is not their preferred option as it can get hard.

There is flexibility to work partly from home, possibly one to two days per week, or more when you don’t need to be in other offices.

With excellent communication skills, both verbal and written, you will be keen to progress your career in a dynamic business that is growing. There is an attractive remuneration package including salary and STI.
