This is a People & Talent Partner role with Marley Spoon based in Alexandria, NSW, AU Marley Spoon Role Seniority - mid level More about the People & Talent Partner role at Marley Spoon Careers don’t grow in comfort zones. Ready to build something extraordinary? Marley Spoon is on a mission to bring better cooking back to the table through fresh, flexible meal kits. Every week we deliver thousands of meals across Australia - and none of it would be possible without the ambitious teams behind the scenes. This role is about making sure those teams have the culture, support and talent they need to thrive. The Opportunity We're looking for an ambitious talent leader who is ready to co-own and co-drive the future of our people and brand. As a pivotal part of a small but mighty People & Culture team, you won't be a cog in a machine - you'll be at the center of a national operation, with the autonomy to make a measurable impact from our Alexandria office. This isn't about traditional HR; it's about leading projects across the entire employee journey, from shaping our recruitment strategy to supporting onboarding and development. We're looking for a People & Talent Partner who gets energised by turning metrics into competitive advantage. You'll own the entire employee lifecycle - from crafting attraction strategies that draw top talent to designing development programs that nurture long-term growth, and creating retention initiatives that keep our best people thriving. This role demands someone who doesn't just manage People processes but builds comprehensive employee experiences that drive both individual success and organizational excellence. You'll thrive here if you're the type who sees data as your compass, treats every hire as a strategic decision, and believes that exceptional culture isn't built by accident - it's engineered by ambitious people who refuse to settle for average. You'll embody our value of being ambitious by taking on new challenges with a relentless focus on results and accountability. If you're ready to make a significant impact and thrive in a culture that rewards doers, we want to talk. What We're Looking For You don't need to have a traditional HR background to succeed in this role. We're looking for someone who believes in a high-trust, high-performance culture over policy-heavy compliance. We want a People & Culture professional who thinks like a business partner - someone who would rather solve problems through smart judgment than create another policy manual. What matters most is your ability to build frameworks that unlock potential rather than limit it. We believe in creating an environment where people deliver results and thrive through autonomy and continuous learning. We're Looking For Someone Who Is An Excellent Communicator: You develop and deliver multi-mode communications that convey a clear understanding of the unique needs of different audiences. You listen attentively, provide timely information, and encourage the open expression of diverse ideas. Highly Organized & Action-Oriented: You're skilled at prioritizing and managing multiple projects on a national scale. You take on new opportunities and challenges with a sense of urgency, high energy, and enthusiasm. Curious & Eager to Learn: An eagerness to learn and interest in the People and Culture field are essential. Your curiosity drives you to cultivate innovation by creating new and better ways for the organization to be successful. Experience & Qualifications We value potential and mindset over perfect credentials. We're looking for someone with a Bachelor's degree (any field - we love diverse perspectives) who can demonstrate strong organisational skills, project management capabilities, and the ability to thrive in our fast-paced, data-driven environment. Preferred Background: Experience in manufacturing, retail, FMCG, or high-growth environments is a bonus, but what matters most is your ability to think strategically about people and culture. Skills: Strong problem-solving abilities, excellent time management, and comfort with autonomous decision-making. You must have high attention to detail, analytical thinking skills, and a genuine curiosity about emerging technologies and tools that can transform how we attract, develop, and retain talent. Tech-Forward Mindset: Interest in exploring how AI, automation, and innovative platforms can enhance the employee experience and streamline talent processes. Attributes: A confident communicator who can influence without authority. You're a strategic business partner who drives continuous improvement through smart judgment rather than rigid processes. You build trust through results, not hierarchy. What’s In It For You At Marley Spoon, we believe work should fuel your growth, not drain it. Here’s what you can look forward to: Delicious perks – Discounted Marley Spoon boxes delivered to your door (plus a test kitchen at HQ where you’ll taste tomorrow’s recipes first).

Global team, local spirit – Flat hierarchies, great energy, and 50 nationalities working together.

We’ll provide support, mentorship, and training to help you grow into the role. Why Marley Spoon? At Marley Spoon, growth is a shared journey.
