Environmental Advisor – Exploration, Mining & Rehabilitation | Yilgarn Iron Restart Project

Location:

Yilgarn Region, WA (FIFO 8:6 from Perth or DIDO from Kalgoorlie / Southern Cross)

Employment Type:

Permanent / Full-time

About the Project

Yilgarn Iron Investments is a privately owned mining company restarting a portfolio of historic iron ore assets in Western Australia's
Yilgarn region
— including
Koolyanobbing, Windarling, and Parker Range
. With tenement activity spanning decades, the project includes areas of active mining, legacy disturbance, and new exploration — all requiring
site-based, practical environmental management
across approvals, compliance, monitoring, and rehab.

About the Role

We're seeking a capable
Environmental Advisor
to work across
exploration programs, active mining operations, and progressive rehabilitation
. You'll be the on-site environmental point of contact — responsible for monitoring, reporting, compliance tracking, and support for approvals processes, with a strong focus on
native vegetation, flora and fauna, and disturbance management
.

This role suits someone who's confident being out in the field, talking with drill crews one day and assessing landform stability or vegetation condition the next. You'll work closely with the environmental lead, approvals consultants, Traditional Owners, and the site team to ensure compliance obligations are met — practically and proactively.

Key Responsibilities

  • Conduct scheduled and ad hoc
    environmental monitoring
    across exploration, mining and rehab areas — including dust, water, fauna observations, and vegetation condition
  • Monitor and track
    native vegetation clearing
    , ensuring compliance with permits and boundary controls
  • Support flora and fauna management, including
    recording sightings
    ,
    weed identification/control
    , and
    feral animal tracking
  • Contribute to the maintenance of environmental registers, compliance obligations, and internal databases
  • Assist with clearing permit applications (Native Vegetation Clearing Permits, Programme of Work submissions), liaising with approvals consultants and government bodies as required
  • Participate in
    heritage coordination
    , including mapping, access control, and clearance support
  • Support rehabilitation inspections — erosion, landform stability, species regrowth and photo monitoring
  • Contribute to environmental inductions and toolbox content for site teams and contractors

What We're Looking For

  • 3–5 years' experience in a site-based
    environmental role
    within mining, exploration, or civil construction
  • Familiarity with
    WA environmental legislation
    , including Part IV/V, MCPs, NVCPs and PoW processes
  • Strong field-based skillset — confident identifying vegetation, tracking fauna, and monitoring ground disturbance
  • Experience supporting
    clearing compliance and rehab performance tracking
  • Comfortable working closely with operational teams and Traditional Owner representatives
  • Tertiary qualifications in environmental science, botany, land management or similar
  • Manual WA C-Class Driver's Licence
  • Basic GIS/GPS use or mapping skills advantageous
