At Origin, our People & Culture team is more than a support function — we’re strategic partners helping power the future. We are looking for a dynamic Time & Attendance Analyst to help shape and improve the way we manage time, rosters, and workforce compliance across the business.

• Lead data-driven process improvements and deliver training across business units
• Guide key stakeholders through best-practice timekeeping and workforce processes
• Support UAT and IT solution delivery with clearly defined system requirements

What will you bring?

The ideal candidate will be curious, solutions-focused, and collaborative, demonstrating resilience, adaptability, and a commitment to continuous improvement. With a background in workforce planning, rostering, payroll or HR systems. You will also demonstrate:
• 3+ years’ experience in a Time & Attendance or workforce planning role
• Tertiary qualifications in HR, Business, IT or a related field
• A strong analytical mindset and excellent decision-making skills
• Confidence using Excel and PowerBI for reporting and insights
• Experience with SuccessFactors, Workforce Solutions, or Alvaria (a big plus!)
• Natural collaborator with great communication and relationship-building skills

So why join us?
• 20 weeks of paid leave for primary carers with flexible return options.
• Thrive in a culture of personal and professional growth.
• Enjoy a central CBD location with access to parking and public transport.
• Purchase up to four additional weeks of leave annually.
