Responsibilities Include;
- Lead the safe and efficient execution of underground mining activities, ensuring alignment with production targets and operational plans.
- Supervise and support a team of mining, engineers, and contractors, fostering a high-performance and safety-first culture.
- Oversee all aspects of development and production, including drill and blast, stope extraction, haulage, and pastefill operations.
- Manage contractor performance and compliance, ensuring delivery against KPIs, contractual obligations, and site standards.
- Collaborate with Technical Services and Geology teams to ensure accurate execution of mine plans and schedules.
- Drive continuous improvement initiatives focused on safety, productivity, cost control, and operational excellence.
About you
- A degree in Mining Engineering or equivalent operational experience in underground mining.
- A current or near-completion WA First Class Mine Manager's Certificate of Competency (highly regarded).
- A minimum of 10 years of underground mining experience, with at least 3 years in a Superintendent or senior supervisory capacity.
- Strong working knowledge of underground mining methods, including pastefill, development, and production drilling.
- Contract mining oversight experience – particularly in managing performance, compliance, and relationships.
- Demonstrated leadership in safety systems and incident management.
- Proficiency in Deswik or similar mine planning and scheduling software.
- High level of interpersonal and communication skills – able to engage, influence, and drive team outcomes.
- Ability to pass a pre-employment medical, including drug and alcohol screening, and obtain a National Police Clearance.
