Ready to put your mine planning expertise to work on a bigger stage? This is your opportunity to shape planning across four Western US operations, become a trusted technical partner to site leaders and see your decisions make a tangible difference on the ground.

Based in Las Vegas, you’ll combine regional influence with hands-on operational involvement. You’ll have the autonomy to guide technical decisions, strengthen long-term reserve planning and help each operation achieve its potential.

• Strong compensation package recognising your technical expertise and regional responsibility
• Full-time, senior individual contributor role with autonomy, variety and significant regional visibility
• Potential for broader career opportunities within a significantly larger organisation following a recently completed transaction

Why This Business

Join a major materials and mining organisation as it enters an exciting new chapter. A recently completed transaction with one of the largest building materials businesses in the US brings greater scale, continued investment in technical capability and the potential to build a broader long-term career.

The West Region accounts for a significant share of material movement, putting your expertise close to the decisions that matter. Your work will be visible, your recommendations will carry weight and your contribution will directly support operational performance.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Shape regional and site mine planning across four operations, developing practical plans, schedules and a clear view of long-term reserves.
• Be the trusted technical resource for site engineers and operating teams, raising planning standards and leading through expertise and influence.
• Turn geological, survey, operational and cost data into safe, practical and economically sound mine designs and investment recommendations.
• Get out on site, build strong relationships and identify opportunities to improve performance alongside regional and operational leaders.

What You’ll Bring

• Strong surface mining experience, with proven ownership of mine planning and a broad grounding in mine engineering.
• A relevant engineering, mining, geology or technical degree, or equivalent proven industry experience.
• Practical knowledge of production, blasting, mine design and technical analysis, with the judgement to turn engineering principles into workable solutions.
• The confidence to influence stakeholders, communicate clearly and lead technical activity independently across multiple locations.

Who This Suits

You’re a mining engineer who enjoys seeing plans come to life. You want to stay close to operations, work through real challenges with site teams and see the results of your technical decisions.

You’re ready to broaden your impact across a region. You enjoy independence, build trust by delivering on your commitments and see regular travel as an opportunity to understand each operation and make a meaningful contribution.
