Our client is a fast-growing, medium-sized organisation seeking a dynamic Head of HR & Marketing to join their leadership team. This is a hybrid role that combines deep HR expertise (with Australian experience, including working with unions and navigating complex awards) with hands-on marketing leadership.

  • Design and implement scalable HR processes for recruitment, onboarding, learning and development, and retention.

  • Act as a trusted advisor to the leadership team on culture, engagement, and people strategy.

  • Build systems to support international teams while ensuring alignment with Australian standards.


Marketing & Communications

  • Own the company's brand, corporate communications, and external positioning.

  • Lead marketing strategy and execution across digital, social, PR, and field marketing channels.

  • Manage internal communications to ensure alignment with organisational priorities.

  • Oversee content creation, campaigns, and community engagement, including paid social media strategy.

  • Collaborate with sales and leadership to deliver consistent messaging and growth-oriented campaigns.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of combined experience in HR and marketing, including leadership responsibilities.

  • Strong Australian HR background, with proven experience in union and award negotiations.

  • Demonstrated marketing experience in a fast-growing start-up or scale-up environment.

  • Ability to balance strategic thinking with a hands-on, execution-focused approach.

  • Strong leadership, team management, and stakeholder engagement skills.

  • Excellent communication and negotiation abilities.

  • Preferred: APAC-based expat with Australian HR experience.

What They Offer

  • The opportunity to shape both the people function and brand presence of a growing business.

  • Competitive salary (aligned to senior HR/marketing leadership roles, with cost advantages if based offshore).

  • Annual leadership offsite, with travel to Australia or New Zealand provided.

  • A collaborative, entrepreneurial environment where your impact will be visible.

Independent Contractor Perks

  • HMO coverage available for eligible locations.

  • Permanent work-from-home arrangement.

  • Immediate hiring.
