The Company
Our client is a well-funded, ASX-listed resources company advancing a significant Western Australian gold development project.

With an experienced leadership team, a strong balance sheet and a long-term growth strategy, the company is building the foundations required to become a leading Australian gold producer.
The Opportunity
This is a rare opportunity to establish and lead the People & Culture function during a transformational stage of growth. Reporting directly to senior leadership, you will play a critical role in shaping the organisation's workforce strategy, culture, systems and processes as the business evolves from a lean project team into a large-scale mining operation.

- Design and implement performance management, succession planning and leadership development programs
- Support change management initiatives associated with organisational growth and transition
- Build strong relationships with internal stakeholders, recruitment partners and external advisors
You are an experienced HR leader who thrives in dynamic, fast-paced environments and enjoys building capability from the ground up. You bring strong commercial acumen, a practical approach to problem solving and the ability to influence stakeholders at all levels.
You will demonstrate:
- Proven HR leadership experience within mining, resources or heavy industry
- A hands-on approach with the ability to operate effectively in a lean team environment
- Experience supporting workforce growth, project mobilisation or organisational transformation
- Strong knowledge of Australian employment legislation, ER and IR frameworks
