Description

Not just another geology job. Build something that matters.

Our benefits include:

  • Permanent, full-time opportunity.
  • Competitive salary package + Short-Term incentive.

  • Employee Assistance Program.
  • Access to corporate discounts through our HR platform.
What you'll be doing

You'll play a key role in maximising ore recovery and supporting mine planning through accurate geological interpretation and grade control. Further to this, you will help to continually refine and improve the forward-looking geological models and positively contribute to the accuracy of mine planning grade and tonnage forecasting.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Planning and managing grade control drilling programs.
  • In-pit geological mapping and sampling.
  • Ore spotting, mark-outs and bench mapping.
  • Working alongside Mining and Technical Services to reduce dilution and maximise recovery.
  • Building and refining geological models.
  • Tracking ore movements and maintaining geological databases.
  • Using industry-leading software including Leapfrog, Deswik and acQuire.
  • Contributing ideas that genuinely improve the operation.
We're looking for someone who
  • Holds a Bachelor of Science (Geology) or equivalent.
  • Has a minimum of 2 years' experience in a similar role.
  • Has open pit experience (highly regarded).
  • Enjoys getting out in the pit, not just sitting behind a screen.
  • Is confident using Leapfrog, Deswik and acQuire.
  • Understands QAQC, drilling and sampling practices.
  • Wants to be part of a close-knit team that values collaboration and accountability.

If you're looking for a role where your work is valued, your ideas are welcomed, and your career can grow alongside an expanding gold producer, we'd love to hear from you.
