Our Wilpinjong Mine is an open-cut mine located 58 kilometres northeast of Mudgee, producing high-quality thermal coal for export and domestic markets. We have a mine life extending into the 2030s and are exploring options to expand that for another decade.

Reporting to the CHPP Shift Supervisor, your role will be to operate all areas of the Coal Preparation plant in line with production schedules while working within a small crew.

  • Operate stockpile dozers to manage the product coal stockpile.
  • Operate stockpile dozers for reclaim operations and train loading.
  • Maintain CHPP equipment during scheduled maintenance periods.
  • Maintain cleanliness of all areas of the CHPP and Train Loadout.
The lifestyle:

This position is offered on a family-friendly rotating 5:4 even time roster with a mix of days and nights, allowing you to enjoy a residential lifestyle in the nearby Mudgee district.

With 6 weeks of annual leave, this role allows ample time for leisure and family activities, with only a 3-hour drive to Sydney or the coast. Mudgee airport offers flights to Sydney, Newcastle, and Cobar, while nearby Dubbo Airport provides destinations including Brisbane, Melbourne, Broken Hill, Walgett, Bourke, and Lightning Ridge.

Benefits include:
  • Reduce tax through salary sacrifice options, including up to 50% of your home loan interest/rent plus utilities such as electricity and water.
  • Novated vehicle leasing available.
  • Discounted Private Health insurance.
  • Over 2,000 health and lifestyle benefits with WHEREFIT.
  • Employee recognition program.
  • Employee assistance program for you and your immediate family.
About you:

The successful candidate must have an electrical trade qualification and be a proactive team player, with:

  • An electrical qualified supervisor's certificate.
  • Minimum of 3 years of operations/maintenance experience in a CHPP.
  • A demonstrated positive work ethic.
  • Effective teamwork skills.
