Yo-Chi are looking for a People Partner who wants to do the actual work: writing scripts for difficult conversations, owning investigations end to end, locking in performance catch ups, and coaching our venue and operations leaders on all things employee relations.

Reporting to the Head of Talent, you'll support our venue teams and operations leaders across a broad range of people matters. You bring solid ER experience, a sound grasp of the Fast Food Industry Award, and you're not afraid to get stuck in.

What you'll do:

• Managing and progressing workplace investigations - taking statements, reviewing evidence, drafting outcome letters
• Scheduling and locking in performance catch-ups and PIPs with operational leaders, keeping things moving and documented
• Coaching venue managers and ops leaders on employee relations best practice, Fair Work obligations, and how to handle people matters on the floor
• Providing advice on the Fast Food Industry Award, employment contracts, and relevant legislation
• Supporting disciplinary processes, grievances, and conduct matters end to end
• Maintaining accurate case notes, documentation, and records across all people matters
• Assisting with daily queries across the employee lifecycle
• Helping improve templates, processes, and tools as we grow

What we're looking for:

• 2-4 years' experience in an HR Advisor, People Partner, or ER-focused role
• Solid working knowledge of the Fast Food Industry Award and Australian employment legislation (Fair Work Act, NES)
• Hands-on experience managing ER matters - you've written scripts, run investigations, and issued outcome letters before
• Background in QSR, hospitality, retail, or a multi-site operational environment is a bonus
• Organised, detail oriented, and good at keeping matters progressing without things slipping
• Strong written communication - you can draft a script or investigation reports that's clear and defensible
