WA Perth Inner and Western Suburbs, Australia LIONTOWN RESOURCES LIMITED Full time

Join a world-class lithium project in full production ramp-up.

Kathleen Valley is forging ahead — and we’re building the team to match.
As underground development accelerates, we’re expanding our technical team and looking for a driven Ventilation Engineer to support the continued growth of the mine. This is your chance to help shape a world-class lithium operation as we move confidently into full-scale production.

This is a permanent site-based role, operating on an 8/6 FIFO roster from Perth. You’ll stay in our modern Dragonfly Village, just minutes from site, with excellent onsite amenities.

Why now?

With underground development well underway and our production ramp-up in full swing, this is a pivotal time to join Liontown. We’ve made significant investment into our growth, backed by a recent capital raise, and we’re confidently progressing into full-scale production. Our focus is clear: underground production at Kathleen Valley — and this is your chance to help shape it.

About the role

Reporting to the Technical Services Manager, and back-to-back with our Senior Ventilation Engineer, you’ll:
• Support and implement the Ventilation Control Plan, in line with the Work Health and Safety (Mines) Regulations 2022
• Hold the statutory appointment as Underground Ventilation Officer under Schedule 26
• Collaborate with mine planning, production, and safety teams to support a complex underground layout with six portals feeding into a one-way truck circuit designed for safety and efficiency
• Use Ventsim and Deswik software to monitor, model, and optimise airflow as production activity increases
• Be part of an agile, empowered engineering team that is defining what “best practice” looks like at a greenfield operation transitioning into long-term operations

About you

You’ll thrive in this role if you bring:
• A Bachelor’s degree in Mining Engineering (or relevant underground operational experience)
• Minimum 6 months' experience as an underground ventilation engineer
• Proficiency in Ventsim and Deswik mine design software
• A solid understanding of WHS risk management for Schedule 26 statutory compliance
• Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to work in a fast-paced, high-growth operational environment
• A collaborative, safety-first approach and strong communication skills
• Have obtained a National Police Clearance within the last 6 months or have the ability to obtain one.
• Able to pass a Pre-Employment medical and Drug and Alcohol screen.

Why Liontown

By joining our team, you will be supporting the world’s transition to a more sustainable future. We aim to be leaders for sustainability, social responsibility and governance practices and are developing a mine site for the future, powered by renewable energy and featuring unique and innovative mining and processing designs.
