Melbourne, Österreich Melbourne Royal ® Vollzeit

Melbourne Royal is a member-based, not-for-profit organisation that was formed in 1848 and the purpose is to celebrate agriculture, cultivate events and strengthen communities.

Our Vision is for Melbourne Royal to be globally recognised as a seal of excellence, highly valued for:

  • Showcasing food and beverage, produce and producers
  • Presenting premier events, including but not limited to the Melbourne Royal Show
  • Activating and creating vibrant event spaces at Melbourne Showgrounds.

Every experience with our organisation and our people is designed to bring a smile to your face. From being a valued member to the awards, events and the venues we manage along with every other professional service we provide. We are cultivators of happiness.

In 2021, our organisation rebranded from the ‘RASV’ to ‘Melbourne Royal’ to signify the beginning of an exciting new era for our organisation in the lead up to celebrating 175 years in 2023. The rebranding to Melbourne Royal maximises our opportunities for business growth – developing new awards, new events, new venues, new services and membership and minimises our investment on creating new brands and logos as we innovate and create programs.

  • Develop and implement effective incident management protocols, ensuring timely response, thorough investigation, and compliance with regulatory reporting requirements.
  • Design and execute preventative strategies aimed at minimizing workplace safety risks.
  • Communicate safety policies and procedures effectively through excellent written and negotiation skills.
  • Solve problems and resolve conflicts related to safety issues promptly and efficiently.
  • Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams to enhance safety measures and outcomes.
  • Manage multiple objectives within strict timelines and handle conflicting demands with professionalism.
  • Maintain professional relationships with external organisations, including regulatory bodies and industry partners.
  • Focus on continuous improvement and ensure quality control in all safety-related processes.
  • Demonstrate self-motivation and the ability to work independently with a high degree of initiative.
Desired Skills and Experience

What we are looking for:
If you have tertiary qualifications in Risk Management, OH&S management, or equivalent significant experience with proven experience in leading and driving a safety culture within complex and event management environments, this is a great career opportunity.

Candidates must be proficient in conducting thorough OHS audits and risk assessments, knowledge of incident management protocols, including response, investigation, and regulatory reporting as well as skilled in developing and implementing strategies to minimize workplace safety risks.

In addition we are seeking individuals with excellent written and negotiation communication skills, strong problem-solving and conflict resolution abilities.

Organisational Compliance:
All employees must maintain a current Working with Children Check and be available to work the 11 days of the Melbourne Royal Show, including flexible rostering with varying hours to accommodate event timings. Additional hours may be required during event periods.
