Group 404 (1)

AHRI is an equal opportunity employer

At AHRI, we embrace diversity and are dedicated to attracting, retaining and developing our people regardless of gender identity, ethnicity, sexual orientation, disability and age. Applications are encouraged from all sectors of the community and we strongly encourage applications from the Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander community.

 

Why join us?

AHRI are proud to offer a friendly, collaborative, and personable workplace culture, delivering excellent customer service to our members and customers. Our employees’ wellbeing is at the forefront, with AHRI supporting individual employees to balance their work and personal lives through a range of offerings. 

Flexible Working

Flexible Start Times

Our flexible start time policy allows team members to adjust their typical daily hours (start and finish) to accommodate family and work commitments. Teams can discuss their preferred hours with their manager in advance and reach a mutual agreement. While we offer flexibility, it is important to note that this must occur within AHRI’s core business hours, considering the needs of our team, stakeholders, and members.

Hybrid Working

Achieve work-life balance and cut down on weekly travel to the office! While we support remote working, we also acknowledge the benefits of working together in the office and as such we currently have a 2:3 model (2 days in the office and 3 days out of the office). This model is adjusted for part-time employees. We also provide new starters with financial support to set up their home office. 

Working Interstate/Overseas

Online collaboration has changed where we need to work, with AHRI having skilled employees across the country. AHRI employees can also request to work overseas for defined periods to support family or travel commitments.

Purchasing Additional Annual Leave

AHRI employees can request to purchase up to 4 weeks of additional leave per year.
