About the role

As a Mine Engineer you will turn near-term plans into safe, reliable production at Ernest Henry. You will own the weekly plan and rolling 3-month plan, keep designs practical through regular underground checks, and work shoulder-to-shoulder with operators and leaders to remove roadblocks fast.

• Designing for delivery: prepare drill and charge designs to meet targets, including service holes, vent rises and ore-passes.
• Managing cave performance: directing drill/charge/fire locations to maintain broken stock.
• Improving what matters: run short-term projects and investigations to lift performance.
• Keeping everyone aligned: updating progress and reporting so decisions stay data-driven.
