Perth, Western Australia Perilya Full time
Geotechnical Officer

Who we are and what we do?
Steeped in history with an eye to the future, Perilya provide long-term career opportunities for our
employees. Across our three Lead, Zinc and Silver mines, we work on challenges with the steady
hand and historical knowledge of our local Broken Hill workforce, while simultaneously inviting,
growing and developing experience that can only add to the success of individuals and the team as a
whole.

The opportunity
In simple terms, you work and study at the same time. In some ways it is like an apprenticeship,
except you end up with a university degree rather than a trade qualification. Take the first steps in
your career as a Geotechnical Engineer by partnering work and study, learning on the job and
studying remotely.

Initially, the job will be predominately computer based, learning the right buttons to click to draft
the plans that make things happen underground. The Geotechnical Engineering team will teach you
which buttons to click, show you what you need to create and review your plans to make certain
they are correct prior to release. In addition to design work, you will take part in underground work
and testing, exposing you to the underground side of the operation. It is all on the job training, with
no previous experience required.

The next stage will be working towards becoming a Geotechnical Engineer by undertaking part-time
external tertiary study; we will help you identify the course that best suits you after you have
commenced work with us.

Why us?
We offer the benefits that you would expect from a leader in our field, including:

Monday - Friday roster
Private health capped reimbursement
Corporate gym and aquatic membership
Novated vehicle lease
Study assistance
Accrued day off (ADO) 12 days per year

But what makes us different?

Our work. We offer challenging work in mines that have existed for over 135 years, on one
of the great ore deposits of the world.

Our loyalty. We want you to reach your potential while contributing to ours. We will help
you grow while we go on this journey together.

Our culture. We are a diverse team, some with family backgrounds that can be traced back
over 100 years working in these very mines. At the same time some of our team are

experiencing their first time in the mining industry and underground and are hungry for
shared knowledge and experience.

Our community. Our town is built around the mines. This means that you have less than a
10-minute drive to work and can be home to relax and unwind at the end of your shift in no
time at all. With a blend of mining history, renowned artists, a claim to being Australia's first
Heritage Listed Town, art studios, cafes, pubs, sporting communities, gyms and numerous
schools, Broken Hill is ideal for families, or for individuals looking to explore and experience
life in an easy going, yet rich community. You definitely have a work life balance here.

What will you bring?
You are a quick learner, you know your way around a computer, you maintain accuracy and attention
to detail, and you love working as part of a team.

Your work ethic is strong and you are committed to developing your career with Perilya by
undertaking fully supported part-time external tertiary study. You want to succeed and are willing
to put your best efforts towards study while undertaking full time work. You know it will take
commitment and you are hungry to succeed.

Take that next step
A career with Perilya is enhanced knowing that we value the hard work and diversity of our teams
workplace.

We have been mining this area for over 135 years. Make your mark. Be part of the future, while

Note:
Only people with Australian work rights will be considered for this role. Only successful
