We’re a bold team with a bright future; and we’re looking for people who want to be part of it.

Evolution Mining is a premier global gold company operating six mines across Australia and Canada. We’re transforming mines and uplifting careers. We’ve extended the mine life of our Ernest Henry Operations to 2040 and doubled its ore reserves. We took our Cowal Gold Operations underground in just seven years. We’re transforming our Red Lake Operations, restoring it as a premier Canadian gold mine. That kind of ambition creates careers, not just jobs.

When we asked our people what they enjoy most about working at Evolution, two things came up across every site: career growth and the quality of the people. Here, you’ll work alongside people who care, who push one another to be better, with leaders who arethere to support you.

What’s the opportunity?

If you're an experienced mining electrician who enjoys variety, autonomy and being out in the field, this is an opportunity to take ownership of critical infrastructure that keeps our operation running.

As our operations continue to grow, we're investing in the people and infrastructure that support our future. This role offers the chance to lead electrical maintenance activities across a diverse range of non-process infrastructure including communications networks, surface facilities, underground services and remote assets. No two days are the same. You'll be trusted to make decisions, coordinate contractors and provide hands‑on technical leadership across the operation.

Based at our Mungari Operations and reporting to the Infrastructure Supervisor, you'll:

• Keep critical electrical and communications infrastructure operating safely and reliably across surface, underground, open pit and remote locations.
• Lead and coordinate contractors, ensuring work is completed safely, efficiently and to a high standard.
• Drive statutory compliance through isolations, inspections, audits and corrective actions, including S26 coverage requirements.
• Respond to planned and reactive maintenance activities, using your experience to make sound decisions in the field.
• Support infrastructure projects and continuous improvement initiatives that help strengthen safety, reliability and operational performance.

Why Mungari Operations?

Mungari is a cornerstone asset in our portfolio, with a mine life to at least 2038. It’s operationally diverse, with opportunities to work on the surface or underground and a great team of people who care. Our recent expansion of the processing plant has more than doubled processing capacity from 2 million to 4.2 million tonnes per year. With open pit and processing all on one site, the operational diversity is ideal for uplifting careers.

What suits your lifestyle best? We offer drive‑in, drive‑out (DIDO) and fly‑in, fly‑out (FIFO) rosters at Mungari. You choose. Live local in the world‑class mining community and enjoy our competitive live‑local incentives and allowances. Or choose FIFO and enjoy the camaraderie and benefits that village life offers.

The future here is bright; you could be part of it.

What we offer you

We support, develop and reward you to ensure you have a bright future. Here’s how we back that up:

• FIFO from Perth or residential Kalgoorlie options available.
• Relocation assistance for eligible candidates.
• Competitive live‑local incentives and allowances for residential employees.
• Employee share scheme and referral bonus opportunities.
• Salary packaging options including novated leasing and remote area benefits.
• Life insurance and income protection.
• Attractive parental leave benefits.
• Study assistance and ongoing career development opportunities.
• Discounted health insurance.

Does this sound like you?

• Current Western Australian Electrical Licence.
• Statutory Supervisor (S26) qualification or the ability to obtain it.
• Proven experience working within a mining operation.
• Demonstrated experience leading or coordinating contractors in a mining or heavy industry environment.
• Strong fault‑finding and maintenance experience across electrical infrastructure.
• Ability to work autonomously, prioritise competing demands and make sound decisions in the field.
• Physical capability to perform hands‑on work, including working at heights and attending remote infrastructure locations.

Highly regarded:

• Experience with communications systems and cabling.
• Exposure to instrumentation and control systems.
• Experience with Pronto or similar maintenance management systems.
