Senior Mining Engineer

Most Senior Mining Engineers step into established operations with established systems.

This opportunity is different.

An emerging underground gold producer is entering a pivotal stage of growth as it advances towards production and strengthens its technical leadership capability. Joining now offers a rare opportunity to influence mine planning, operational strategy and technical standards during a formative phase of this underground operation.

Working closely with site leadership, you'll play a key role in mine design, scheduling, optimisation and continuous improvement initiatives while helping establish the foundations for long-term success.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

  • Join during a critical growth phase before full production
  • Influence planning, strategy and operational decision-making
  • Work alongside an experienced executive and technical leadership team
  • Attractive remuneration package, including both short and long-term incentives 
  • Roster options 8:6 or 14:14.


What You'll Bring

  • Tertiary qualifications in Mining Engineering
  • Minimum 5 years, underground hard rock mining experience
  • Strong mine planning and scheduling capability
  • Advanced proficiency in Deswik
  • A proactive mindset with the ability to influence outcomes and build strong working relationships.


Apply Now
Few engineers get the opportunity to help shape an operation before it reaches full production.

Whether you're based in Christchurch, Greymouth, elsewhere in New Zealand or simply exploring new opportunities from other parts of the GLOBE, we'd encourage you to apply and start a conversation.
