Underground Geologist

A great opportunity to work in an expanding underground mine with a supportive mining company and long term focus.

**The Company**

Regis Resources was originally incorporated in 1986 as Johnson's Well Mining and held that name until a restructure in 2004 when they were rebranded as Regis Resources. Since then, the company has gone from strength to strength acquiring tenements in NSW and WA, running successful mines with solid yield.

The Duketon project in WA has been in continuous production since 2009 with 3 operations based at: Moolart Well, Rosemont and Garden Well including 2 underground mines and surrounding satellite pits. The expansion into a new underground operation has led to the need to ramp up recruitment and presents the opportunity for new team members to make their mark on how the operation runs.

The culture of the business is one of respect and integrity which they have instilled throughout the workforce amongst their other values "Respect, Integrity, Teamwork, Ownership and Courage". Regis are a supportive and organised entity that put a strong emphasis on staff care and development.
