General Manager

2 weeks ago

Darling Downs, Western Australia Appoint Full time $180,000 - $250,000 per year

Own the Numbers. Command the Strategy. Deliver the Results.

This role is about transformation, not maintenance. As General Manager, you will take full ownership of a complex mining business, embedding commercial precision, introducing smarter systems, and setting a new standard for disciplined performance.

With the authority to shape strategy, influence stakeholders, and turn data into decisions, you will lead a technically strong team through a pivotal phase of change - stabilising today, while designing the frameworks that define tomorrow.

Based in the Darling Downs, this residential role offers more than career challenge. You'll enjoy the lifestyle benefits of a thriving regional township, with excellent schools, healthcare, and community infrastructure - the perfect balance of professional influence and personal quality of life.

Command the Role

  • Own the financial engine of the business, setting the metrics, driving efficiency, stabilising costs, and ensuring every forecast is accurate and accountable.
  • Shape strategy and systems, embedding commercial discipline, transparent reporting, and frameworks that make decisions sharper, faster, and evidence based.
  • Lead with authority, guiding a technically strong workforce and instilling a culture where expectations are clear, performance is measured, and results are non-negotiable.
  • Influence with credibility, building confidence at executive level while commanding respect across contractors, unions, government, and community stakeholders.
  • Deliver stability and discipline, steering the site through transition into long-term performance, creating value that endures well beyond your tenure.

The Edge You Bring

  • Proven senior leadership in mining or heavy industry with full P&L accountability.
  • The ability to cut through complexity, enforce cost discipline, and sustain margins.
  • Experience leading technically capable teams and influencing large workforces.
  • Authority in government, community, and industrial relations engagement.
  • Advanced commercial and financial acumen with strong modelling and forecasting expertise.
  • Tertiary qualifications in commerce, finance, or engineering; MBA highly regarded.

Your First 6 Months Defining Success

  • Stabilise costs and deliver forecasting accuracy across the operation.
  • Embed rigorous reporting systems and cost-control processes.
  • Define KPIs that drive performance across every critical metric.
  • Implement decision-making frameworks where every dollar and every tonne is accounted for.
  • Win trust by providing fast, accurate insights and measurable improvements.

Why This Opportunity Matters

This is not a maintenance assignment. It is a mandate to take command, impose discipline, and deliver results with executive backing and the resources to succeed.

Here, numbers matter. Performance matters. Results matter. If you are a commercially astute leader who thrives on data, accountability, and authority, this is where you prove it.

Move Forward Today

Step into a role where you control the numbers, lead with authority, and define the future — all while enjoying the lifestyle advantages of the Darling Downs.
