Xref (XF1) is on a mission to bring positive change to the recruitment process by offering reference, background and ID checks that are fast, simple and secure.

Since listing on the ASX we have expanded across APAC, Europe, Canada and the USA supporting thousands of businesses across multiple markets and industries, delivering a robust and reliable service to some of the most highly regulated, audited and trusted companies globally.

As the People and Culture Lead, you will oversee the strategy and implementation of talent acquisition, employee engagement, and retention across our team of 80 people (and growing!) globally. It’s an exciting time to come onboard being a hyper growth company and there are plenty of areas for you to get your teeth sunk into such as creating a culture of learning and implementing an employee wellness program. 

Although you will manage the overall strategy of hiring top talent, you will have a TA Partner reporting into you who will actively source talent and manage the recruitment process for all regions.

• Manage the pre and onboarding of all new employees across the Xref group

• Implement and manage a company wide  learning and development scheme to create a culture of learning

• Build strong and effective relationships with leaders across the business to help drive and collaborate with P&C practices

• Manage engagement strategies such as quarterly awards, walking challenges, help organise team events etc

• Look at how we can utilise our internal communication platform, Workplace, to drive company wide engagement and collaboration even further

• Ensure all exiting employees receive a consistent offboard and conduct exit interviews and provide feedback to line management and leadership.
