Project Mine Geologist

If you're ready to trade long airport queues and FIFO transit days for a genuine home, community and career path, this could be the move you've been waiting for.

Join a major WA gold operation and build your future in Kalgoorlie, where your work matters, your contribution is valued, and your days off are spent living locally instead of travelling.

For many geologists, the next career move isn't just about the mine or the salary. It's about finding somewhere that offers long-term stability, a strong team, and a lifestyle that works outside of rostered hours. That's exactly what makes this opportunity different. 

Based residentially in Kalgoorlie, you'll become part of a community built around mining, where weekend sport, local events, quality schools and a genuine sense of belonging are all part of everyday life. For those considering a move to the Goldfields, a relocation allowance is provided after commencement to help support your transition to Kalgoorlie.

You'll be joining an established operation with the scale, technical complexity and longevity to keep experienced geologists engaged. The work is meaningful, the challenges are real, and you'll be surrounded by people who understand the value geology brings to operational success. This is the type of environment where you can continue developing your technical capability while also taking ownership and influencing outcomes.

The company behind this opportunity has built a reputation for investing in its people and promoting from within. Career progression is encouraged, professional development is supported, and you'll have access to experienced leaders who understand geology and give their teams the autonomy to do their best work.

To be successful in this role, you'll likely have:

  • 3+ years' operational geology experience, ideally within gold mining
  • Experience supporting geological modelling, resource growth or orebody definition
  • Strong understanding of drilling programs and geological data collection
  • Exposure to Leapfrog, Datamine, Acquire or similar geological software
  • The ability to work collaboratively across geology, mining and technical teams.


If you're looking for a role that offers both career growth and the chance to build a life in the Goldfields, we'd love to have a confidential conversation.


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