Job Description

Drive operational excellence, performance uplift, and strategic workforce planning for our largest contact centre in Joondalup.

About the Role

Are you a strategic Workforce Management professional who thrives on modernising long-standing processes and elevating operational performance?

While our contact centre operations are firmly established, we are ready to take our planning maturity to the next level. This is not a "keep the seat warm" maintenance role, we need an energetic, resilient WFM leader who can assess our current baselines, challenge legacy ways of working, and build a modernised, proactive workforce planning discipline from the ground up.

Based in Joondalup, you will own the end-to-end WFM framework , spanning multi-skill capacity planning, advanced forecasting, and real-time execution. Acting as a trusted commercial advisor, you will bridge the gap between data and operational reality, building confidence and performance across our teams.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Modernise & Mature the Function: Review existing workflows, eliminate legacy inefficiencies, and establish structured, modern WFM frameworks across forecasting, scheduling, and intraday governance.
  • Strategic Capacity & Financial Modeling: Develop robust short-, medium-, and long-term capacity models (workload, shrinkage, attrition, recruitment curves) that support headcount budgets, client SLAs, and cost optimisation.
  • Lead with Operational Resilience: Navigate changing volumes, sudden service spikes, and high-tempo floor environments with composure, steering real-time interventions that protect customer outcomes and team wellbeing.
  • Stakeholder & Client Partnership: Act as the strategic partner to Operations and client stakeholders, translating complex workforce analytics into clear, commercial decisions and actionable operational advice.
  • Coach & Develop the WFM Team: Mentor, inspire, and elevate a dedicated team of Planners, Schedulers, and Real-Time Analysts, fostering a proactive, continuous-improvement culture.
  • Governance & Delivery: Ensure roster design, scheduling, and operational deployments strictly comply with award requirements, fatigue management guidelines, and internal policies.

What we are looking for

  • Proven WFM leadership experience within a multi-skill contact centre environment.
  • Demonstrated capability in modernising legacy scheduling processes and building frameworks from the ground up.
  • Strong operational resilience, stakeholder engagement, and change management skills.
  • Hands-on expertise in capacity modeling (Erlang, shrinkage) and enterprise WFM tools (NICE, Verint, Genesys, Calabrio).
  • Experience engaging directly with operational leadership and commercial stakeholders to present data, explain variance, and defend capacity assumptions.

What’s in it for you?

  • Support our largest contact centre in Perth
  • Access an unlimited mental health and well-being platform, empowering you to stay balanced and thrive both personally and professionally.
  • Access to everyday savings: From technology, phone bills, fuel and groceries to fashion, restaurants and entertainment. Our employee benefits provider Flare can help you save every day with well-known brands

If you’re a proactive and experienced WFM leader ready to influence strategy and drive operational excellence, we’d love to hear from you.
