Field Assistant

If you're a Field Assistant with previous WA exploration experience and exposure to RC, DD and AC drilling programs, this FIFO contract offers the opportunity to join a busy exploration team and gain valuable hands-on experience across a variety of gold exploration activities.

Supporting a highly active exploration program with up to five rigs operating at any one time, you'll play a key role in daily drilling operations, sample management, site logistics and ensuring geological programs run safely and efficiently.

Working on a 15/13 FIFO roster from Perth, you'll work across two project areas nera Meekatharra. Both share house and caravan accommodation is being utilised, so applicants will need to be comfortable working flexibly across both projects and accommodation arrangements.

To succeed in this role, you will have:
  • Minimum 6 months' Field Assistant experience within WA
  • Exposure to RC, Diamond and AC drilling programs
  • Strong commitment to safety and field-based best practice
  • Ability to work independently and adapt to changing project requirements
  • Strong communication skills and a willingness to contribute within a small exploration team
  • Current Australian manual driver's licence.
This is an excellent opportunity to join a junior explorer where you'll gain exposure to multiple drill programs, work closely with experienced geologists and play an important role in advancing significant gold projects across the Mid-West region of Western Australia.

Apply now or get in touch for a confidential discussion.

Unfortunately, MPI are only able to consider candidates with appropriate and relevant experience who are either Australian Permanent Residents or hold the necessary permits to work in Australia and are currently residing in Australia.
