Job Description:

Senior Mining Engineer & Mining Engineer – Build the technical foundations that get Sunday Creek into production
Monday – Friday | 5:2 Roster | Clonbinane, VIC
Permanent | Technical Services Team | Start ASAP
We're growing our Technical Services team at Sunday Creek and have opportunities for both a Senior Mining Engineer and a Mining Engineer to help build the mine from the ground up.

Why SXGC?
Because your work here matters.
Sunday Creek is one of Australia's best new gold and antimony discoveries, and it's moving fast toward production. We back our people with a supportive, safety-first culture and real ownership over the plans and projects that get this mine built.

We have two opportunities within our Technical Services team to support turning a rich orebody into a mine plan that stands up over the long haul, as well as keeping the underground environment safe and the projects moving as we ramp up.

About the Role:

Reporting through our Underground Development Manager, the Senior Mining Engineer focuses on long-term mine planning — life-of-mine, annual and quarterly plans, design and technical studies — and provides technical leadership across the team. The Mining Engineer focuses on ventilation design and monitoring and the delivery of engineering and capital projects. Both roles are hands-on, technical and central to how we get Sunday Creek into production.

Job Responsibilities:

What You'll Drive
Contributing to mine design, scheduling and technical studies — from annual and quarterly plans through to life-of-mine plans and PFS/FS-level studies, depending on the role
Designing, monitoring and optimising the underground ventilation circuit to meet Victorian OHS Regulations 2017 (Part 5.3)
Supporting drill and blast design, execution and performance monitoring
Delivering engineering and capital projects, from scope through to commissioning
Liaising with geology, geotechnical, survey, environmental and operations teams to keep plans technically robust and operationally feasible
Supporting budgeting,



cost forecasting and short-term scheduling and reconciliation against plan
Communicating plans, options and risk trade-offs clearly to site leadership and stakeholders
Conducting inspections, hazard identification and task observations to support protected production
For Senior Mining Engineer: providing technical direction and mentoring to the Mining Engineer and future junior/graduate engineers

Who You Are
You could be early in your ventilation and project delivery career, or you could be the person other engineers come to for the long-term plan — either way, you think several steps ahead, back your numbers, and can explain trade-offs clearly to people who aren't engineers. You're comfortable moving between the detail of a design and the big picture of the mine plan, and you take ownership of the details that keep people safe underground.

Your Background
Senior Mining Engineer
✔ Tertiary qualification in Mining Engineering or a relevant engineering discipline
✔ Extensive experience in underground hard rock mining, ideally sub level stoping
✔ Proven long-term planning, life-of-mine scheduling and technical study experience

✔ Experience with ventilation and/or paste-fill design considerations (desirable)
✔ Strong communication, analytical and problem-solving skills
✔ Effective planning, organisation and time management
✔ Experience mentoring or providing technical direction to junior/graduate engineers

Mining Engineer
✔ Tertiary qualification in Mining Engineering or a relevant engineering discipline




✔ Underground hard rock mining experience; ventilation design/monitoring experience highly regarded
✔ Proficiency with Deswik, and Ventsim/Pumpsim Design, or willingness to learn
✔ Sound understanding of drill and blast principles

✔ Strong organisational skills and ability to work independently in office and underground
