Step into a leadership role on an underground gold project in WA's Pilbara region that is restarting operations after a period of care and maintenance.

This is a great opportunity for an experienced underground fitter to lead a small maintenance crew, working closely with the team to safely bring the operation back online. You'll be working across a diverse underground fleet including Sandvik, Epiroc, Normet and Elphinstone equipment, offering strong variety and technical exposure.

With a 2:2 FIFO roster, excellent camp facilities and a tight-knit workforce, this role offers both lifestyle balance and long-term opportunity.

  • Coordinate planned maintenance, servicing and breakdown response

  • Ensure maintenance and reliability targets are achieved within set timeframes

  • Drive strong safety standards, compliance and quality workmanship

  • Coordinate workshop and field activities to keep equipment running efficiently


What We're Looking For

  • Cert III Heavy Diesel Fitter / Diesel Mechanic trade qualification

  • Extensive experience maintaining underground mining machinery

  • Previous mine-site leadership or Leading Hand experience

  • Strong understanding of safety, reliability and preventative maintenance

  • Ability to lead by example and build a strong team culture

  • 2:2 FIFO roster from Perth

  • $83/hr+ depending on experience

  • Temp-to-perm opportunity

  • Quality camp accommodation with ensuite rooms, gym, rec room and wet mess


Why This Role?

You'll be joining a smaller site with an experienced, supportive crew, where everyone works together to achieve results safely. Being part of a mine restart phase also means strong opportunities to grow with the operation as it ramps back up.
