Job description
DescriptionMelrose Built is growing. With a strong pipeline across New Build and Fit Out, we are looking for a commercially minded People & Talent Business Partner to drive proactive workforce planning and strategic recruitment across the business.
This is not a reactive HR role. This is a market-facing, relationship-led talent role designed to ensure we always know who the best people are before we need them.
About the Role
Strategic Recruitment and Market Mapping
- Head hunting across commercial construction including Project Managers, Site Managers, Contract Administrators, Project Coordinators and specialist roles
- Actively resourcing the market and building talent pipelines
- Attending resourcing and project planning meetings to understand upcoming workforce needs
- Partnering with hiring managers to shape role briefs aligned to programme, margin and risk
- Providing insight on salary benchmarking and competitor activity
Onboarding, Training and Employee Lifecycle Ownership
- Updating and delivering the company induction to all new starters, ensuring alignment with culture, safety, systems and project delivery standards
- Partnering with hiring managers to design and implement bespoke role-based inductions aligned to project and commercial requirements
- Supporting structured 30, 60, 90 day plans and six month integration frameworks for all new hires
- Working with leaders to clearly define performance expectations and success measures for the first six months in role, for example a new Contract Administrator
- Managing the Training Needs Analysis process across the business, ensuring role-based capability requirements are identified and reviewed regularly
- Coordinating mandatory training requirements across the employee lifecycle, including WHS, compliance and role specific accreditations
- Maintaining oversight of training compliance and reporting, ensuring legislative and internal standards are met
- Supporting leaders to identify capability gaps and implement targeted development plans
Stakeholder Partnership
- Coaching hiring managers on recruitment process discipline
- Ensuring recruitment decisions are evidence based and aligned to long term capability

You bring:
- Demonstrated experience in strategic recruitment, ideally within construction or property
- Confidence in direct sourcing and head hunting
- Strong stakeholder management capability
- The ability to move between operational detail and strategic workforce planning
- A structured mindset around onboarding and early stage performance
- You are comfortable challenging hiring managers where needed. You understand awards, risk and the importance of hiring right the first time.
Why join Melrose
- Parking provided - 5 minutes' walk from Fortitude Valley Station
- 4 weeks annual leave plus 5 days paid wellbeing leave, available from your start date
- Generous paid parental leave for both the primary carer and secondary carer
- Regular social and work events, with genuine opportunities to build long term connections at Melrose
- Leadership that is genuinely invested in your development and committed to creating a culture where people feel supported and want to come to work
- 77.8% engagement score, supported
Why This Role Matters
The quality of our people determines the quality of our projects. This role ensures we build capability ahead of demand, not behind it.
