Description

Process Technician – Gold Plant

FIFO Perth / DIDO Kalgoorlie | 8:6 / 7:7 Roster | Permanent Position

Know gold recovery? Ready for something better?

You know your way around a gold plant. You understand the circuits, know what to look for when things aren’t running as they should, and take pride in getting the best out of a shift.

Now, imagine putting that experience to work at a site where you know the people you work with are going to show up every shift, your contribution is noticed, and you’re part of a team building something for the long term.

Welcome to Aurenne. We do things differently.

What’s in it for you?

• A roster that works for you – 8:6 / 7:7, FIFO from Perth or DIDO from Kalgoorlie.
• Permanent employment – leave the uncertainty of contracting behind and join a team with a long-term plan.
• Competitive package – salary, superannuation, 10% bonus and private health benefits.
• A future at Mt. Ida – 7+ years of mine life ahead, with further opportunities being worked on.
• Owners who know your name – we’re privately owned and owner-operated, with direct access to the people making decisions.
• A quality camp experience – permanent rooms, great food, a well-equipped gym and a walking trail.
• Less time getting to site – we fly with Skippers, avoiding the long travel days associated with some FIFO operations.
• Extra benefits – salary packaging, novated leases, employee discounts, an Employee Assistance Program and a referral bonus for bringing your mates on board.

What you’ll be doing

You’ll be part of the team responsible for safely and efficiently recovering gold across the processing plant, from crushing through to tails.

Your day-to-day work will include:

• Operating and monitoring the plant across milling, thickening, leaching, CIL, water services and elution.
• Monitoring the DCS and operating the control room to maintain stable plant performance.
• Identifying process issues, troubleshooting equipment and responding to changing plant conditions.
• Conducting plant sampling, inspections and process checks, with accurate records and shift handovers.
• Identifying risks, maintaining high safety standards and keeping the plant in good order.
• Working hands‑on with the team to maintain performance and maximise gold recovery.

Experience operating a skid steer, forklift or telehandler is an advantage.

What we’re looking for

We’re after someone who understands gold processing beyond simply keeping the plant running. You know how the circuits work together and understand how your decisions can affect recovery, throughput and plant performance.

To be considered, you’ll need:

• At least 2 years’ recent experience in a gold processing plant.
• Practical experience with CIL and elution circuits.
• Previous control room and DCS operating experience.
• Experience working with pre‑leach thickeners.
• A current, unrestricted WA C Class driver’s licence.
• Full Australian working rights and the ability to obtain a National Police Clearance.

Most importantly, you’re hands‑on, switched on and proactive. You take ownership of your work, communicate well with your crew and can be relied on to get the job done safely.

About Mt. Ida Gold Mine

Commissioned in May 2023 by GR Engineering Services, our Mt. Ida processing plant is a CIL operation designed around a fine grind of 45 microns to support gold recovery.

With a multiple‑pit feed strategy, the plant is built for flexibility and performance. We need experienced operators who understand the process, recognise when something isn’t right and take pride in running a good plant.

Why Aurenne?

We’re a privately owned, family‑run gold mining company with a straightforward philosophy: think differently, operate differently and reward differently.

We believe a quality operation starts with quality people. That means investing in equipment, creating a good working environment and giving people the opportunity to make a genuine contribution.

You’ll work alongside people who care about the operation, with owners who are involved on site and a team where practical experience counts.

If you’re ready to put your gold processing experience to work somewhere that values it, we’d like to hear from you.

Aurenne is an equal opportunity employer and encourages applications from women and First Nations people.

Applicants must reside in Western Australia and hold full, valid Australian working rights.

Our brand‑new camp facilities, in‑house catering, a short commute to the site and family friendly rosters are what set us apart from the rest. We have successfully cultivated the Aurenne ‘Family’ culture where we are able to align your work and lifestyle goals with our success.
