Grosvenor Mine – an underground steelmaking coal mine produced its first longwall coal in May 2016 and is located in Moranbah, about 190 km south-west of Mackay.

Anglo American are currently recruiting multiple Underground Operators within Development at Grosvenor Mine based in Moranbah, Queensland.
Reporting to the Development Coordinator, the primary purpose of the role is to complete all tasks safely and efficiently, to assist Grosvenor Mine in achieving its goal of zero harm, whilst maximising production output and minimizing production costs.

We’re a large, successful multinational company – and we’re still growing all the time.
We aim to lead the industry by pursuing ever safer and more responsible ways of working, demonstrating integrity, and showing care and respect for people and the planet. That means we are constantly seeking new opportunities to mine and process our products sustainably, using less water, less energy and more precise extraction technologies.
