About the role

All progress begins with pioneers. At Rio Tinto, it begins with you.


We are looking for a
Manager, Mine Operations to join our Brockman 4 Operations leadership team and lead our mine operations to success.


As an experienced operational and/or technical leader, this is a great opportunity to diversify your experience or welcome a change in scenery.

Alternatively, you're a high performing frontline leader overseeing a mine operations team and ready to take your career to the next level.

We invite you to be part of our ongoing journey to take efficiency and safety to the next level, support the operation and business, whilst providing authentic leadership and genuine care to our people.

We need you to motivate, inspire and keep your people safe and well.

With signature leadership training programmes, growing and developing is more than an opportunity - it is something we actively plan and make happen.

Every day, our leaders grow.

Reporting to the General Manager and working in a challenging and exciting environment, you will be:

  • Ensuring the mine achieves a standard of excellence in health and safety operations and compliance by leading and implementing health and safety policies and strategies
  • Managing mine production functions to ensure budgeted production targets are achieved in a safe, timely and costeffective manner
  • Ensuring the mine meets the operating budget requirements in the areas of quantity, quality, and cost of production
  • Actively involved in the development of the mine budget and annual plan
  • Working in close cooperation with peers and other team members
  • Evaluating and implementing best practice mining practices
  • Establishing a peoplecentric culture with a focus on safety, wellbeing, engagement and continuous improvement
  • In addition to the above, you'll build strong relationships with internal stakeholders across our operational teams and functional support teams.

What you'll bring

  • A commitment to the safety and wellbeing of yourself and your team
  • The ability to confidently manage large scale mining operations or projects
  • Open cut mining operations experience
  • Authentic leadership and genuine care


Exposure to iron ore operations is not essential, and we would be interested in hearing from individuals with leadership experience gained across other commodities.


What we offer


Be recognised for your contribution, your thinking and your hard work, and go home knowing you've helped the world progress.


  • A work environment where physical and mental safety is always the number one priority
  • A permanent position working directly for Rio Tinto
