The Geophysics and Geochemistry Team is seeking a Data Analyst to join our Geochemistry QA/QC and Data Processing team. This role offers the prospect to work within a specialist technical group responsible for ensuring the quality, integrity, and delivery of critical geochemical and grade control data that supports mining and production decisions.
Working alongside geoscientists, mine geologists, and technical specialists, you will play a key role in monitoring sampling quality, validating data, troubleshooting data issues, and supporting the delivery of reliable grade control information. The role provides exposure to geochemistry, geophysics, data management, quality assurance, and operational geology while developing a strong understanding of mining production processes.
Reporting to the Superintendent Geophysics and Geochemistry, you will work with a highly experienced team to ensure accurate, timely, and auditable geoscience data is delivered to support site operations.
As a key member of the Geophysics and Geochemistry Team, you will be responsible for:
Demonstrating a robust commitment to health, safety, environmental responsibility, and sustainable development.
Delivering accurate and timely grade control data through the monitoring and validation of geochemical models and data workflows.
Ensuring the productive and reliable flow of geoscience data between geology, mining, and operational stakeholders.
Managing grade control systems and ensuring all data is validated, auditable, traceable, and integrated with downstream systems.
Monitoring and improving Quality Assurance and Quality Control (QA/QC) processes throughout the sampling, analysis, and data delivery workflow.
Investigating data quality issues, identifying root causes, and implementing corrective actions.
Monitoring sampling performance and supporting continuous improvement initiatives across grade control processes.
Building strong working relationships with Mine Geology, Mine Planning, Geoscience Operations, Technology teams, and external service providers.
Supporting the ongoing improvement of sampling practices, data quality controls, and grade control capabilities through training, mentoring, and process optimisation.
Assisting with reporting, data analysis, and performance monitoring to support operational decision-making.
