We are looking for a Mine Operations Manager to establish and lead mine production at site — taking the operation through pre-strip and initial pit development into first ore and steady-state production. You will own everything that happens in the pit, turning approved plans into safe, consistent, cost-effective ore delivered to the plant.

• Manage ore delivery and ROM stockpiles by grade domain to meet the plant's grade, tonnage and blending requirements.
• Manage mining contractor performance against productivity, availability and utilisation KPIs.
• Own the mine operations budget, controlling cost per BCM, strip ratio and cost per ounce.
• Lead safety performance at site and build a strong, capable national operations team.

What you will bring

• Bachelor's degree in Mining Engineering.

A strong advantage: experience taking a project through construction into first ore and ramp-up — you will be doing exactly that here. POU certification is also valued.
