Mining Engineer

• Drive production scheduling and drill & blast design
• 8/6 FIFO roster | Day shift | Broken Hill, NSW

You will play a key role in the restart of a major underground silver-lead-zinc mine in Broken Hill, NSW. With mining scheduled to recommence in November 2026, you will join the technical services team during a critical ramp-up period, taking ownership of mine scheduling and drill and blast design to support the operation toward nameplate production.

Working within established systems and using Deswick, you will help translate the mine plan into practical production outcomes. You will work closely with the mining and technical services teams, supported by an established operation, while contributing to a fast-paced restart environment where your ability to hit the ground running will be highly valued.

This is an initial six-month contract with a strong likelihood of extension as the mine ramps toward full production. You will work an 8/6 back-to-back roster on day shift, with 11-hour days and FIFO/DIDO arrangements available. Accommodation will be provided in Broken Hill, with flights and transfers arranged for the duration of the contract.
