Do you find it challenging to return to work after an extended career break? Are you looking for a supportive and flexible employer to re-establish your career?
Whether you are a parent, a carer or seeking to return to work after a career break, we have a fantastic opportunity to support your transition back to work. Water Corporation’s Return to Work program will offer you the right support to help you re-establish your career in your preferred profession. This program also offers you flexible career options that allow you to balance your family’s changing needs and make time for what’s important. This role is hired as a part of this program and those who have been on a career break of about 2 years, or more are highly encouraged to apply.
About the role
You will be responsible for providing a wide range of administrative assistance to support the regional office with procurement, sentinel records administration, meeting coordination, OSH and training support, vaccination program, and customer service.
A large component of this role includes safety records management, vaccination program administration and meeting coordination so experience in these areas would be well regarded.
This is an interesting, and diverse opportunity that requires an individual who has very good communication skills and attention to detail.
While this is an administrative role, you will find it a rewarding one as you will also be an integral part of the Northwest Region WHS Team, helping the region achieve its safety and wellbeing requirements and initiatives.
We encourage anyone with an administration background to apply, no matter the OSH experience.
Who are we?
When you join Water Corporation, you play an important role for the people of WA. Our services are essential for life - everyday, millions of Western Australians rely on us to deliver and manage water across our state.
If you’re driven to make a meaningful contribution, you’ve come to the right place.
Real benefits that matter
- Real flexibility with options to work from home, 9-day fortnight, flexible work hours.
- Access to dedicated 1:1 coaching with an expert return to work coach, personalised to your specific requirements
- Two well-being days each year to do whatever you need to do to feel good.
- Access to long service leave pro rata after 3 years of service
- Generous co-contribution superannuation scheme, which offers up to 15.5%. This includes an 11.5% standard employer contribution, plus an additional 2% employer co-contribution that matches your own 2% contribution.
- Purchase additional leave of up to 12 weeks or work 4 years at a reduced salary and take the fifth year off as paid leave
Discover more benefits we offer to support the unique and individual ways our employees live.
Your skills and experience
A career gap should not be a barrier to achieve your professional aspirations. Our Return-to-Work program is designed to identify and acknowledge your previous skills and experiences, and help you build new ones. We would love if you could bring following expertise to optimise our team performance.
- Experience with Sentinel or any OSH management software favourable.
- Valid WA ‘C’ class driver’s license – as you will be required to travel within the region.
- Record management skills.
- Strong Microsoft Office skills.
