Where Mining Finds Its People

This job has expired. Click here to see new and active jobs like this one.

Jobs on CareerMine expire for many reasons. Either the employer has requested the advanced expiration of the job (as the vacancy has been filled or cancelled), or the job ad has expired after its normal running-time of 60 days within the CareerMine system. While there is the possibility that the vacancy may still be active, it is most likely that it has been filled or cancelled; otherwise it would be on CareerMine still.

It is strongly advised that you do not contact the company or advertising agency regarding this, or any other expired role, for the purposes of gaining employment with that company. Companies often impose strict penalties on job seekers who go outside of the established channels, to contact the employer regarding vacancies. (Employers have also made it clear in the past, that sourcing expired jobs and contacting them regarding their status, is one of these non-established routes.)

The opportunity

  • You will be required to carry out all geological functions in accordance with Group policies and procedures as well as complying with all relevant statutory requirements.
  • You will have proven communication skills and will be able to negotiate favourable outcomes in a challenging and dynamic mining and processing environment.

  • Must be a team player.
  • Previous laterite nickel experience highly regarded.

The Essentials

Relocation for international candidates will be considered and you will be offered a beautiful villa by the sea for singles (or married couples, no kids) or 3x2 or 4x2 houses for families (depending on size) residentially in the town. They are all new houses, very modern with rent set to about $250 per week (which is salary sacrificed) and you will receive a $20k pa Housing Allowance (which should cover the rent). Pets allowed.
  • Youll receive attractive wages, benefits and rewards for your loyalty, commitment and hard work. You will also be welcomed as part of a family.
