Montu is Australia's largest healthtech business with a focus on alternative healthcare. Founded in 2019, it supports patients, doctors and pharmacies through its Alternaleaf clinic, offers accredited healthcare education to clinicians via its SAGED platform, and dispensing solutions to pharmacies across Australia through Leafio. Montu is also the founding member of Cannabis Council Australia, a non-for-profit advocacy body that advances legislative change across the healthcare landscape. Our mission is to make alternative healthcare more affordable and accessible for the millions who could benefit.
Montu has been recognised as Australia’s fastest-growing tech company in the Deloitte TechFast 50 for two consecutive years (#1 in 2022 and 2023), achieving remarkable revenue growth of 26,000% and 9,000%. Named #1 on LinkedIn’s Top Startups Australia 2024, Montu has cemented its position as the largest business of its kind outside North America and continues to evolve on its journey.
This role is an Australia-based, fully work-from-home position, with access to co-working spaces in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane.
The Head of People Partnering leads our team of People Partners aligned to business areas across Montu, and personally takes on the most complex, sensitive, and executive-level Employment Relations matters that arise. You'll be accountable for the standard of partnering support delivered to managers and senior leaders, and you'll take hands-on accountability for the matters that need them.
This isn't a hands-off leadership role. You'll set the operating direction for the partnering function, lift manager capability across the business, and personally run the ER work that needs senior judgement: investigations, executive exits, deeds of release, Fair Work proceedings, settlement decisions. ELT exposure is real and constant. So is the ambiguity that comes with scale.
You'll report to the GM People and work closely with the broader People team and ELT.
