Perth, Western Australia Ramelius Resources Limited Full time
About Us

At Ramelius Resources, gold mining is more than a business — it's part of who we are. From our beginnings at Wattle Dam to becoming one of Australia's most successful gold producers, we've built our reputation on performance, innovation and vision.

With strong cash flow, bold growth plans, and a commitment to sustainable mining, we're investing in new technology and exploration to shape the future of gold production. Our people are at the heart of it all — driven by purpose, supported by opportunity and united by ambition. When we grow, you grow.

With an exceptional track record of success in production delivery coupled with the acquisition of strategic additions to the company portfolio, we are driven to achieve our vision of being a 500koz gold producer by FY30.

The Role
Responsibilities

As Senior Legal Counsel, you'll provide expert legal advice across a broad spectrum of corporate, commercial, regulatory and operational matters. You'll work closely with leadership and cross-functional teams to manage legal risk across the business and support strategic transactions. Your responsibilities will include:

  • Advising on a wide range of legal matters including corporate governance, mining, employment, procurement, and compliance
  • Supporting mergers and acquisitions, takeover activities and divestment transactions including conducting due diligence and preparing transaction documentation
  • Drafting, reviewing and negotiating complex legal agreements
  • Monitoring and assessing compliance with relevant legislation, ASX Listing Rules and regulatory developments
  • Collaborating with internal stakeholders to promote strong governance and risk management practices
  • Managing relationships with external legal advisors and other stakeholders
  • Ensuring alignment with the Company's Code of Conduct, policies, and safety standards
  • Assisting with company secretarial activities
About You

You are a commercially astute and strategically minded Senior Legal Counsel with the ability to influence and engage meaningfully at all levels. You are proactive and solutions-focused, with a calm and pragmatic approach. You bring:

  • Strong interpersonal skills and the ability to influence across all levels of the organisation
  • Ability to deliver pragmatic, commercially sound legal advice in a dynamic business environment
  • Significant demonstrated experience, ideally across both private practice and in-house roles
  • Tertiary qualification in Law and admitted to practice in Western Australia
  • Strong working knowledge of the legal regime applicable to mining and exploration in Western Australia
  • Proven experience in M&A transactions, commercial negotiations, and regulatory compliance
  • Experience across corporate, commercial, employment, litigation and regulatory matters is desirable

In this varied role you will work alongside a collaborative and values-driven leadership team, in an outcomes-focused environment. This role is offered on a Monday-Friday basis. To attract top talent, a competitive salary package is on offer — featuring a generous short-term incentive scheme, health insurance rebate, parking and a range of additional benefits designed to reward your impact and commitment.
