Job Description
Liontown Limited (ASX: LTR) is one of Australia's newest and most exciting lithium producers. Our Kathleen Valley Lithium Operation in Western Australia is a world-class, tier-one asset with a 20+ year mine life — and we're now building on that foundation through a significant staged expansion.
n
The expansion is underway. Early works have commenced, a 5.5MW ball mill is on order, underground development of the Northwest Flats orebody is progressing, and a dedicated project team is being assembled to deliver the next phase of Liontown's growth. These are 2-year maximum term roles, created specifically for our expansion plans.
n
This is a rare chance to join a fast-moving, dedicated project team at the very beginning of a major capital programme. The expansion will progress in stages, and new workfronts will open up as the project develops — and there's genuine opportunity to move between areas as scope evolves.
n
You'll work across underground development, surface infrastructure, and processing plant upgrades in a single assignment. If building your site-based project delivery experience on a real, live capital programme is what drives you, this is the role.
n
What you'll be doing
n
n
Leading end-to-end delivery of complex, higher-value work packages from FID through to commissioning and operational handover
n
Designing and refining execution approaches, drawing on constructability input, lessons learned, and programme-level alignment
n
Managing contractors across the full cycle: scopes of work, tender strategy, commercial evaluation, performance oversight, and claims management
n
Developing and managing detailed schedules and cost forecasts, identifying critical path risks, and driving recovery strategies
n
Coordinating with operations, engineering, and supply chain teams to manage interfaces and ensure seamless delivery




n
Mentoring and coaching Project Engineers, building capability and a high-performing team culture
n
Providing clear, accurate project reporting to Project Managers and the broader leadership team
n
n
What we are looking for
n
n
Tertiary qualification in engineering — mechanical, civil, electrical, process, mining, or a related discipline (we consider a broad range of engineering backgrounds)
n
Proven experience delivering complex or higher-value capital works in mining, minerals processing, or comparable heavy industry through EPCM or direct delivery models
n
Strong contractor and commercial management capability: tender strategy, contract administration, variation management, and accountability
n
Experience on brownfields or operating sites, including managing simultaneous operations, shutdowns, and tie-in activities
n
The ability to work independently, exercise sound judgement, and constructively challenge when needed
n
A genuine interest in developing others — mentoring, technical coaching, and helping those around you grow
n
Project management certification (PMP, PRINCE2, or equivalent) desirable
n
Current Australian driver's licence and ability to satisfy standard WA mine site induction, ticketing, and medical requirements
n
n
Why Liontown
n
At Liontown, you'll join a team that's helping power the clean energy future. Our operations are built on sustainability — and our culture is built on people who take ownership, look out for each other, and are proud of what they're building.
n
n
Adaptable roster options (8:6, 2:1, or 2:2) and competitive remuneration round out what's on offer.
n
n
Liontown is committed to creating an inclusive and diverse workplace. We welcome applications from people of all backgrounds.
n
Liontown Limited. Powering Tomorrow, Respecting Today.
