This is an excellent opportunity for Underground, RC or Diamond Drillers wanting to transition into large-scale open cut production mining.

Join a large-scale production Drill & Blast team
We welcome applicants with experience in:
Underground drilling

RC drilling
Diamond drilling
Previous open cut production experience is advantageous but NOT essential.
About the role:
You'll be joining a high-performing Drill & Blast team on one of WA's largest mining operations.
Successful candidates will operate production drills and assist with drill support duties as required.
What we're looking for:
HR Driver's Licence
