Where the next discovery starts

Every mine began as a hunch, a soil sample and someone willing to get out there and do the work. At Foxtrot Solutions, that someone is our field team, and we’re growing it.

We’re looking for experienced Mineral Exploration Field Technicians to join active programs across the Central West of NSW, one of Australia’s most prospective mineral regions. If you know your way around a drill site, a sampling grid and a long day in the paddock, we’d like to hear from you.

What’s on offer

Versatile engagement. Choose casual work or a 3, 6 or 12 month contract, depending on what suits you.

Project-based rosters that are planned around the work, so you know what’s coming.

Accommodation provided, plus meals or a meal allowance, so you can focus on the job rather than the logistics.

Pay in line with the Mining Industry Award, with the rates and conditions you’d expect from a professional operation.





Real exploration work with a team that values experience and looks out for each other.

What you’ll be doing

Supporting field exploration activities, which may include soil and rock chip sampling, geological mapping, rig support, auger operation and sampling, core processing and cutting, rehabilitation activities

Collecting, recording and handling samples and data accurately

Operating and maintaining field equipment and vehicles

Working safely and following site procedures at all times

Pitching in as part of a small, hardworking field crew

About you
