People & Culture Partner

Join us and experience Bunnings from the other side of the counter!

What’s in it for you when you’re part of our team:

• Team discount at Bunnings and other Wesfarmers brands including Kmart, Target and Officeworks to name a few

• Free standard OnePass membership

• Access to over 100+ exclusive team member benefits across health, shopping, travel and stay, wealth, work and leave

• 12 weeks paid parental leave, regardless of gender

• Fun stuff like annual festive gifts, discounted food and drinks at our Bunnings Cafe, and travelling store team member opportunities

• We’re genuinely invested in your career and no matter where you start with us, that pathway is yours to build

We currently have an opportunity to join Bunnings as a People and Culture Partner. As part of the People & Culture team in our West Division, you will work in a small but dynamic team providing support, guidance and HR business advice and partnership to our leaders. 

As a People & Culture Partner, you will work closely with senior leaders to deliver practical, commercial and people‑centred solutions. You’ll play a hands‑on role in embedding our people strategy, lifting leadership capability, and strengthening workforce outcomes across a geographically dispersed and operationally complex environment.

This is a true partnering role – balancing strategic influence with on‑the‑ground support. You will have access to various Centres of Excellence to drive and deliver great people outcomes and solutions for your stakeholder groups.

Bunnings offers a hybrid, flexible working environment. While the role will be based in Perth (Rivervale), there will be a requirement to travel across our store network in WA, therefore a valid Driver's Licence is required.  

What's involved:

• Partner with senior leaders across the West portfolio to deliver end‑to‑end people solutions aligned to business priorities
• Coach and support leaders in performance, talent, engagement, and employee relations matters
• Lead and embed key people initiatives including diversity and inclusion, talent reviews, workforce planning and capability uplift
• Use people insights and data to inform decision‑making and drive continuous improvement
• Act as a trusted partner, building strong relationships across stores, support teams and stakeholders
• Provide guidance and ensure compliance with relevant legislative, policy and process requirements.

Who we’re looking for: 

• Proven experience in a People & Culture Partner or HR Business Partner role
• Strong ER capability with the confidence to navigate complex and sensitive matters
• Commercially minded, with the ability to balance people outcomes with business performance
• Comfortable working autonomously across a large geographic remit
• Trusted, credible and relationship‑driven, with a practical and grounded approach
• Passionate about developing leaders and creating positive team experiences.

You’ll thrive in a fast‑paced environment, bringing energy and agility while actively contributing to a positive workplace culture.

You’ll need:

• A tertiary qualification in HR, Law, business, Commerce, Industrial Relations, or a related discipline (preferred)
• Proven experience working in a HR business partner or HR Advisor role, ideally within a multi-site organisation (3 years minimum preferred)
• Sound knowledge of Australian employee relations legislation
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
• A track record of taking initiative and achieving pragmatic outcome

You’ll be part of a workplace where you’ll feel like you belong.

We welcome applications from individuals of all ages, cultural backgrounds, abilities, sexual orientations, and gender identities. We strongly encourage Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples to apply and join us in shaping a workplace that celebrates First Nations voices, perspectives, and contributions.
