About the role

As a Mine Services Operator at Cowal, you'll play a critical role in maintaining safe and productive mining operations by managing the dewatering of the open pit. This includes:

• installing and maintaining pumps
• connecting pipework
• supporting depressurisation systems to control groundwater

You'll also assist with general mine services tasks, contributing to the smooth execution of mining projects.

What makes this role unique is its niche technical focus—you'll gain specialised experience in pit dewatering, a vital function that directly impacts operational success. While the work can be physically demanding, it offers variety, autonomy, and the opportunity to work both independently and in pairs depending on site activity. For the right candidate, there's also scope to develop into operating machinery such as loaders and excavators, enhancing your versatility and value on site.

Experienced De-Watering Operators can look forward to West Wyalong housing salary packaging offer.

This role is also a potential entry point into de-watering for individuals with no prior experience. If you're practical, reliable, and eager to learn, we'll support your development with on-the-job training and the opportunity to build a long-term career in mining.

About you

You're a hands-on, safety-focused individual with a strong work ethic and a willingness to learn. Ideally, you bring experience in open pit dewatering or a background in practical, outdoor work such as plumbing, farming, or labouring. You hold a current Light Vehicle (LV) licence, and while tickets like C2 Crane, Dogman, Poly Welding, or Chainsaw competency are desirable, they're not essential—we can support you to gain them.

You thrive in a role that offers both independence and teamwork, and you're motivated by the chance to contribute meaningfully to site operations. Whether you're experienced or looking to step into mining with the right attitude, this role offers a pathway to grow your skills and be part of a supportive, values-driven team.

At Evolution, as our name suggests, change and transformation is in our DNA. We want the Evolution experience to be your career highlight. We are an equal opportunity employer committed to creating a more inclusive and diverse workforce that represents the communities in which we operate. We provide a recruitment process that is fair, equitable and accessible for all and candidates from all backgrounds are encouraged to apply. We are focused on keeping our people safe and healthy and creating sustainable value in an environmentally and socially responsible way. Join our bold team to start your next exciting chapter.
