The Pharmaceutical Society of Australia (PSA) is on the lookout for a motivated and organised People & Culture Coordinator to join our passionate team. This is a fantastic opportunity for someone early in their HR career who’s keen to learn, grow, and contribute to a purpose-driven organisation supporting pharmacists right across the country.

About the Role

As our new People & Culture Coordinator, you'll be at the heart of our HR operations—keeping things running smoothly behind the scenes and helping to deliver a great employee experience. Reporting to the General Manager, People & Culture, and working closely with the People, Culture & Capability Partner, you’ll gain hands-on experience across all areas of the employee lifecycle.

You'll:

• Support recruitment, onboarding, and offboarding processes
• Maintain and manage key HR platforms like Employment Hero and Safetrac
• Prepare new employment contracts and manage the full suite of pre-employment checks, including reference and criminal history checks, as well as contract variations such as secondments, extensions, or end-of-employment letters.
• Assist with payroll admin tasks
• Help deliver engaging internal communications (including the weekly CEO update)
• Contribute to staff engagement activities and wellbeing initiatives
• Coordinate the Health, Safety & Wellbeing Committee
• Provide day-to-day HR support across the business
• Keep HR records and compliance documentation up to date and accurate

What We’re Looking For

You’re proactive, a natural organiser, and love helping others. You bring:

• At least 1 year of experience in HR support or administration
• A relevant HR qualification (or currently studying—go you!)
• Solid understanding of HR processes, policies, and systems
• Strong written and verbal communication skills
• Great tech skills, especially in Microsoft Office and HRIS platforms (Employment Hero experience is a plus)
• A knack for juggling tasks and staying organised
• A high level of discretion and respect for confidentiality
• A current Working with Vulnerable People check and the right to work in Australia

Why PSA?

We’re the national peak body for pharmacists—and we exist to advance healthcare in Australia by empowering our pharmacy workforce. Our people are at the centre of what we do, and we’re proud to support meaningful careers, professional development, and ongoing learning.

Working at PSA means being part of something bigger. We believe in:

• Growth and development: We want you to thrive and will support your professional journey
• Diversity and inclusion: We celebrate what makes you, you, and are committed to creating a safe, supportive, and inclusive workplace
