We are committed to safety, integrity, and building strong relationships. But none of this is possible without the right people.

Job Overview:

We are seeking a technically exceptional and visionary Engineering Manager to lead the scale-up and deployment of our proprietary Glycine Leaching Technology (GLT) and other gold processing innovations. Based in Perth, this full-time role is central to translating laboratory and pilot-scale breakthroughs into full-scale, commercially viable operations.

  • Design and optimize metallurgical flowsheets tailored to various ore types.
  • Manage relationships with labs, engineering firms, and equipment vendors.
  • Oversee the development of process diagrams, equipment lists, and commissioning plans.
  • Direct on-site commissioning, ramp-up, and performance tracking.
  • Ensure compliance with environmental and safety regulations, including tailings and water management.
  • Act as the key liaison between technical teams, project partners, and clients.

Knowledge & Experience Requirements:

  • Education: Bachelor's or Master's degree in Process Engineering.
  • Experience: 15+ years in gold processing/metallurgy, including site-based roles and project delivery.
  • Expertise: Proven experience scaling up at least two gold processing technologies (e.g., CIL/CIP, flotation, SART, BIOX/POX).
  • Technical Depth: Strong foundation in comminution, flotation, carbon management, and reagent schemes.
  • Safety & Compliance: Familiarity with HAZOP, LOPA, ICMI Cyanide Code, and GISTM/ICMM standards.

Technical Competencies:

  • Process Engineering & Flowsheet Design: Expertise in integrating unit operations and scaling up processes.
  • Metallurgical Expertise: Deep knowledge of cyanide and alternative lixiviants (e.g., glycine).
  • Circuit Design: Proficiency in comminution and flotation circuit optimization.
  • Commissioning & Operational Readiness: Experience leading commissioning and ramp-up activities.
  • Process Safety: Strong command of safety methodologies and regulatory frameworks.

Leadership & Behavioral Competencies:

  • Strategic Thinking: Aligns technical solutions with business goals.
  • Collaborative Leadership: Builds strong cross-functional and external partnerships.
  • Results Orientation: Delivers high-impact outcomes on time and within budget.
  • Analytical Decision-Making: Translates complex data into actionable strategies.
  • Adaptability: Thrives in fast-paced, evolving environments.
