Unleash your passion for best practice in people processes in this newly created role. Take the lead in developing the culture of Inclusiv Education as an emerging global social enterprise in the EdTech sector, as it enters a period of significant organisational growth. Support our EdTech and instructional staff, managers and operational staff, ensuring we have the capabilities we need to deliver better outcomes for children.

Inclusiv Education is no ordinary social enterprise.

We're transforming the lives of learners and marginalised communities by increasing access to quality education and training opportunity through Education Technology. As a social enterprise of Save the Children Australia (SCA), we leverage Save the Children's global reach and demonstrate an impact that belies our 3-year history. Our mission responds to the challenges of achieving digital inclusion and access to education for all children and youth. We build capacity among teachers and create lasting impact within the International Development sector through supporting EdTech in sustainable and context relevant forms, positioning teachers and trainers at the centre of education and training.

Where you come in:

In this full-time, permanent position based ideally in Melbourne or Adelaide (though other locations will be considered), you'll focus on setting up people frameworks and processes, while also providing generalist People and Culture support across the growing organisation. Taking your inspiration from the best aspects of SCA's people and culture practices and working closely with the SCA People, Culture & Risk team, you'll introduce new initiatives, tailor existing processes and work closely with Inclusiv Education staff and management to respond to their needs. With flexibility to work from home or from our Melbourne or Adelaide offices*, you'll report to the Director Inclusiv Education, with a matrix report to SCA's Head of People and Culture - Corporate and Social Enterprises.
You will make an impact by:

• Leveraging your knowledge of P&C best practice to design and deliver human resources processes and initiatives aligned to an Inclusiv Education People Plan
• Supporting leaders in the management of the employee lifecycle, aligning to Save the Children Australia processes where required
• Providing generalist P&C support and coaching to staff and middle managers, including on performance reviews, IR/ER matters, learning and development activities and end to end recruitment
• Driving a positive, diverse company culture where staff are motivated to do their best work, including leading staff wellbeing initiatives
• Leading operational activities such as risk management, coordination of shared services, regulatory compliance and continuous process and systems improvement

Does this sound like you?

You're inspired by the opportunity to work an organisation that is making the world a better place, with a strong personal values alignment with the mission of international development organisations and a deep commitment to the potential of education together with business to effect positive change in the world. A skilled and flexible People and Culture professional, you're equipped with exceptional emotional intelligence, an ability to build and maintain relationships and an innovative approach that blends strategic and operational capability.

This role requires:

• Significant demonstrated experience in a broad generalist HR role
• Exceptional internal and external stakeholder engagement abilities, with highly developed verbal and written communication skills
• Demonstrated experience in managing and providing sound advice on performance issues, grievances and other ER issues
• Experience coaching and building capability of people leaders
• Experience in education, technology and/or international development settings will be highly regarded

Working at Inclusiv Education is more than just a job.

It's the feeling of knowing that your work is contributing to making the world a better place for those deprived of learning opportunities and working with others who feel the same. In addition to a connection to social causes, you'll benefit from:

• A role that isn't your standard P&C position - additional breadth to develop your skills in business operations, in a newly created role that you can make your own
• Individual learning plans to assist in your career development
• Internal employment and development opportunities
• Friendly and flexible work environment
• Agile work environment including working from home*
• Competitive salary plus super
