We're looking for Geologists and Field Assistants to join current and upcoming exploration programs across Western Australia.

Most of these roles are with smaller, hands-on exploration teams running active drilling programs. Good exposure and proper field experience, rather than sitting behind a desk.

Some roles start straight away and others are coming up shortly, so we want to hear from people who are reliable, field-ready and available at short notice.

What's on offer

- Geologists: $650 - $850/day + super (contract)

- Field Assistants: $550 - $650/day + super (contract)

- FIFO rosters including 8/6, 12/9, 2/2 and 2/1 depending on the project

- Ongoing drilling programs across gold, copper and base metals

- Everything from greenfields exploration through to near-mine and resource drill-out

- Short-term contracts and longer ongoing roles available

Why work with us

- We'll give you a straight view of the role, the site and the team

- We work closely with a small group of clients and know their projects well
