Senior Engineer - Medium-Term Planning

Who we are

We're a bold team with a bright future; and we're looking for people who want to be part of it.

Evolution Mining is a premier global gold company operating six mines across Australia and Canada. We're transforming mines and uplifting careers. We took our Cowal Gold Operations underground in just seven years. We've extended the mine life of our Ernest Henry Operations to 2040 and doubled its ore reserves. We're transforming our Red Lake Operations, restoring it as a premier Canadian gold mine. That kind of ambition creates careers, not just jobs.

When we asked our people what they enjoy most about working at Evolution, two things came up across every site: career growth and the quality of the people. Here, you'll work alongside people who care, who push one another to be better, with leaders who are there to support you.

What's the opportunity?

This is an opportunity to influence the future direction of one of Australia's most significant underground gold operations.

Working across a planning horizon that directly influences budgets, investment decisions, mine development priorities and long-term growth, your work will have a genuine impact on the future success of the operation.

Working a 5:2/4:3 roster and based residentially near West Wyalong, NSW, you'll join a site at an exciting stage of growth, helping unlock opportunities across our expanding underground operation while enjoying the lifestyle benefits of regional living and a balanced roster.
