Why work with us:
Every child and young person deserves a great education. We have a strategy that aims to unlock every child's potential now and into the future, one that in partnership with learners, students, parents and the wider South Australian community will build a world-leading public education system. One that is equitable and prioritises learning and wellbeing. Together we will make our education system the best it can be.

About the Role:
As a Principal Consultant in the Performance Support Team, you will utilise your HR partnering and case management skills in providing a high quality and supportive HR/IR service to an allocated portfolio of sites and people leaders across the Department. An advocate for procedural fairness and with a human-centric approach, your primary focus will be on supporting leaders in effectively managing unsatisfactory performance and conduct concerns, as well as addressing non-compensable incapacity which may be impacting on an employee's ability to carry out the inherent requirements of the role. Whilst working in a supportive and collaborative team environment, this role has the scope for you to deliver on continuous improvement initiatives while also providing a level of independence whereby you can pro-actively partner with your sites and leaders in the achievement of positive outcomes for our schools, employees and students. Members of the Performance Support Team are required to maintain high levels of confidentiality, professionalism and ethical conduct. The work can be intensive, time pressured, challenging and at times politically sensitive – but as a supportive and engaging team, we achieve great things.
