Terregen is a privately owned, well-established contractor with over 30 years experience delivering quality civil and rehabilitation works at mine sites across Queensland.
We're not a big corporate contractor, and we don't want to be. We run small, capable crews and pride ourselves on a skilled, safety-focused business with a practical, down-to-earth culture, no layers of corporate red tape, just experienced people trusted to do their job well.
We're currently recruiting for a multi-skilled operator to join our exploration team at Moranbah North Mine. The roster is 7/7 for DIDO and is from Tuesday lunchtime to the following Tuesday lunchtime for FIFO due to flight timing.
Why work with us
- Day shift only
- Competitive pay, paid fortnightly
- FIFO or DIDO - flights covered
- Low-hour, well-maintained equipment so no fighting clapped-out gear
- Casual or permanent position available - we understand that some people want the security of a permanent role, and others want a casual role to get a higher hourly rate
About the role Exploration work at Moranbah North Mine including:
- Tree clearing
- Leveling pads
- Digging sumps
- Dust suppression and pit filling for drilling rigs
- Vac truck - pit emptying
You will attend prestart with the exploration team and then operate independently throughout the shift with limited supervision.
Your main plant is a Caterpillar 444F backhoe but the ability to drive a watercart and vac truck is highly desirable. You will be back to back with one other exploration operator. Camp accommodation and meals will be provided. We would prefer a DIDO candidate that lives within 5 hours of Moranbah but will also consider FIFO applicants out of Brisbane. Flights will be paid.
What you'll need
- RIIs obtained or renewed within the last 4 years: RIIMPO319 Backhoe, RIIMPO206 Bulk Water Truck, RIIVEH307 Heavy Rigid and RIICCM303 Vacuum Truck. (Vac Truck experience is desirable but not essential)
- Current Coal Board Medical (Health Assessment)
- Standard 11 dated within the previous 4 years
- Current Open Driver Licence (HR preferred)
- Computer literate and capable of completing online inductions
- Minimum 1-2 years' mining experience
- Exploration experience or background
Don't tick every box? If you've got most of what we need and the right attitude, apply anyway, we'd still like to hear from you. The kind of person you are
- You work safely and don't take shortcuts
- You can work alone and be trusted to get the job done
- You can think on your feet and problem solve
- You work well with others, and are just as comfortable talking with clients as collaborating with the team
