Job description

2:1 Roster | Iluka Eneabba Rare Earths Refinery | Bus-In, Bus-Out from Perth

Help Build Australia's First Fully Integrated Rare Earths Refinery

Some projects are just another job. This isn't one of them. Unite Resourcing are recruiting a crew of 20 Intermediate and Advanced Riggers for the construction of Iluka's Eneabba Rare Earths Refinery, 10km south of Eneabba in WA's Mid West. When it's complete, it will be Australia's first fully integrated rare earths refinery. It's a landmark project for the country's critical minerals industry, producing the materials that go into electric vehicles, wind turbines and modern electronics. Few riggers will ever get the chance to say they helped build something like this. We're looking for the best in WA to do it.

Why This Project?

Let's be honest. Plenty of ads promise big hours, a good roster and a great crew. This one delivers all three.

Serious Hours, Serious Earnings

You’ll work 11.5-hour days, 6am to 6pm, seven days a week while you’re on swing. That’s around 80 hours a week, with the overtime that comes with it.

• Public Holiday Rate: $122.88hr - $128.25hr
• About 80 hours a week on swing
• Around 6 months of work, starting as soon as possible

• Base Pay rate: Between$63.38hr - $66.13hr, plus overtime
• Overtime rate after 8 hours: $75.25hr - $78.55hrhr
• Overtime rate after 10 hours: $99.00hr - $103.40hr
• Public Holiday Rate: $122.88hr - $128.25hr
• About 80 hours a week on swing
• Around 6 months of work, starting as soon as possible

A Roster That Works

• 14 days on, 7 days off (2:1)
• Your first swing is 13 days: bus in on a Friday morning and home the following Thursday
• After that, it's the standard 14 on, 7 off

No Flights. No Airport Queues.

Forget early-morning check-ins and missed connections. A coach takes you from Perth to site and back again every swing.

Real Rigging on a Major Build

This is ground-up construction. You’ll be part of the structural, mechanical and piping installation across a brand-new processing plant, working with crane crews on genuine, technical lifts. It’s the kind of project that sharpens your skills and stands out on your resume.

Why Unite Resourcing?

• Your next job lined up early: we work to have your next project ready before this one finishes, so you're not left waiting

• Hold an Intermediate or Advanced Rigging high risk work licence (RI or RA)
• Have proven construction rigging experience, ideally on major projects or processing plants
• Take safety seriously, every lift, every day
