At BHP we support our people to grow, learn, develop their skills and reach their potential. With a global portfolio of operations, we offer a diverse and inclusive environment with extraordinary career opportunities. Our strategy is to focus on creating a safe work environment where our employees feel strongly connected to our values and objectives, and where the capability of our people is key to our success.

**About the Role**:
The Minerals Australia Heritage Team is responsible for delivering dual goals for the company; delivering social value in line with our Reconciliation Action Plan and unlocking resource value in line with our Life of Asset Plans.

At BHP we believe Traditional Owners have intrinsic rights to the land on which we operate. The role of the Heritage Team is to ensure that the company delivers land access in line with the expectations of Traditional Owners and in line with our Charter Values.

We have multiple positions available in our Adelaide Heritage team reporting to the Manager Cultural Heritage. The role is Mon - Fri with some ad hoc site travel, however flexible working options will be considered.

You will be required to:

- Conduct heritage work in line with relevant legislation, heritage agreements and internal standards
- Build strong relationships with Traditional Owners, and facilitate conduct of scientific research to understand the heritage landscape
- Collaborate internally with the operations to identify solutions to minimise our overall heritage impact and align on priorities.
- Partner with community organisations and work closely with government agencies.
- Support BHP to meet its current production targets, future growth objectives and Reconciliation Action Plan incentives by facilitating heritage surveys and cultural understanding activities in line with relevant heritage legislation and company commitments.

**About You**:
To be successful in the Specialist Heritage role you will be driven by a personal desire to make a positive difference in the community combined with a clear understanding of the role that the resources sector plays in cultural heritage management.

You will also have the following skills and attributes:

- Tertiary qualification in Anthropology, Archaeology, Cultural Heritage Management, Indigenous Studies, or similar/equivalent
- Ability to develop and maintain mutually beneficial relationships with stakeholders through the use of excellent communication skills.
- Experience working positively with Aboriginal people and communities.
- Working knowledge of cultural heritage survey process, site recording methodologies, and South Australia heritage legislation.
- Agility to work as part of a team but also be comfortable working autonomously when required and make informed decisions.

**About Our Process**:
At BHP, we are committed to employing individuals who align with the BHP Charter Values and meet the requirements of the role. As part of the recruitment process, there are a number of checks which may be conducted to demonstrate applicants suitability for a role including police / criminal background checks, medical, drug and alcohol testing, due diligence checks, right to work checks, and/or reference checks.
