Free Position Description Templates

Browse our free position description templates, listed A–Z by role. Each one sets out the purpose of the position, key duties, reporting lines and the work health and safety responsibilities that go with it.

Clear position descriptions help a business meet its WHS obligations. Workers have a duty under the model WHS Act to take reasonable care and follow reasonable instructions, and officers and managers have duties of their own. Writing those responsibilities into each role makes expectations clear from the first day and supports consistent inductions, performance reviews and competency checks.

Business owners, HR coordinators and managers use these templates when recruiting, restructuring or updating employment records. Adjust the duties, qualifications and licences to suit your business and the relevant award or agreement.
