HR & IR Consulting

Senior workplace relations advice for the moments that matter: agreements, disputes, awards, people and performance.

Advisory Services

An experienced adviser in your corner

Software covers the documents. Consulting covers everything else. HR Automate provides senior HR and industrial relations advisory support to businesses of every size, from everyday matters through to complex and strategic work with unions and enterprise bargaining, always with practical, measured advice and a clear path forward.

Enterprise agreements

Support through the full agreement lifecycle: strategy, drafting, bargaining with unions, better off overall test considerations and approval.

Award interpretation

Clear answers on modern award coverage, classifications, rates, allowances and rostering, so you can pay and roster with confidence.

Grievance resolution

Procedurally fair handling of complaints and disputes, including as an independent set of eyes when a matter needs one.

Employment training

Practical training for managers and teams on workplace obligations, difficult conversations and managing people well.

Performance management

Structured, defensible performance processes: improvement plans, reviews, and the difficult conversations handled properly.

General HR & IR advisory

From day-to-day questions to sensitive matters, measured advice grounded in current Australian workplace law and real practice.

How We Work

Measured advice, practical outcomes

Every matter starts with the facts and the framework. We set out where you stand, the realistic options in front of you, and the trade-offs of each, then give you a clear recommendation. You always know the path forward and what it will cost before you commit.

  • Senior practitioner advice, not a call centre
  • Grounded in the Fair Work Act, modern awards and current practice
  • Even-handed and procedurally careful
  • Clear scope and pricing agreed up front

Consulting is provided in an HR and industrial relations advisory capacity. It is not legal advice, and where a matter warrants it we will recommend legal review.

Engaging us

Consulting is available by the hour, by the day, or as a fixed-price scope for defined projects such as enterprise agreement negotiations or policy suites.

Every engagement is fee for service, quoted up front. Contact us for a quote tailored to your matter.
