Macclesfield, United Kingdom SKA Organisation Full time

At the SKAO we are coordinating a global effort to deliver one of the largest science facilities on the planet. The SKAO telescopes will be next-generation instruments that will help to answer key questions in astrophysics, drive technological innovation and support human capital development.

More than a dozen partner countries and over a thousand scientists and engineers around the world are already on board, making the SKA project an international collaboration like no other, and one of the most ambitious science and engineering endeavours of the 21st century.

Headquartered in the UK, with telescope sites in Australia and South Africa, the SKAO will be one observatory operating two telescopes, an endeavour spanning three continents. Multinational by design, in early 2021 the SKAO became an intergovernmental organisation, one of only a select handful of science infrastructures to do so worldwide.

Construction activities for the SKAO's telescopes in Australia and South Africa started in 2021, along with a ramping up of SKAO staff in both countries. It is expected that the transition from the Construction Phase to the Operations Phase will happen around 2028.

SKAO Operations in South Africa will be conducted in partnership with the South African Radio Astronomy Observatory (SARAO). SKAO Operations in Australia will be conducted in partnership with the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO). The Observatory will also partner closely with a global network of SKA Regional Centres through which astronomers will access science data products and a suite of tools and resources to further analyse the SKA telescopes' data.

An exciting opportunity for a generalist HR Advisor with expertise in employee relations and HR project delivery to join an international, multicultural organisation.

The Role

Following the establishment of the Observatory as an Intergovernmental Organisation and the more recent creation of local offices in Australia and South Africa, there is a requirement for an HR Advisor to provide local HR advice, guidance and support to SKAO personnel based in Australia.

This role would be suitable for an experienced generalist HR Advisor with expertise in employee relations and HR project delivery to support the existing HR team. The HR Advisor will report to the SKA-Low HR Business Partner and be part of the SKA-Low Business Enabling team.

In Australia, SKAO is collaborating with CSIRO, Australia’s national science agency, to operate the SKA-Low Telescope. SKA-Low teams will operate out of our Engineering Operations Centre in Geraldton, on Yamaji country, and Science Operations Centre in Perth, on Noongar country. The successful individual will be expected to work extremely closely and effectively with the CSIRO-employed SKA HR Business Partner to deliver joined up solutions whilst embedding one SKAO culture and team environment.

This role will be an indefinite appointment and will require some domestic travel to Geraldton and Inyarrimanha Ilgari Bundara, the CSIRO Murchison Radio Astronomy Observatory, and may require occasional international travel.

SKAO is committed to providing an inclusive and flexible working environment, balancing the interests of our Colleagues whilst also fulfilling the needs and objectives of the Observatory.

There may be occasions where this role requires the post holder to work across different time zones and, in line with SKAO policy, flexible working hours will be supported in agreement with the line manager.

Key Responsibilities, Accountabilities and Duties
- Monitor service delivery tool to receive, triage and use initiative to respond to complex queries, maintain records and ensure matters are resolved or referred for resolution, seeking guidance on escalating matters.
- Support and work closely with both SKAO and CSIRO HR colleagues in the delivery of wider HR SKA people objectives, in particular this being in relation to all staff working on the SKA-Low collaboration, both in relation to SKAO and CSIRO-employed staff.
