Auto Electrician


Underground Hard Rock Mining | WA | FIFO Perth | 8/6, 7/7 or 2/2 Roster

Marble is partnering with a globally recognised Tier 1 underground mining contractor to recruit experienced Auto Electricians across three underground mine sites on a major gold project in WA.

This isn't a role that's been thrown together - the contractor holds a 4-year contract on site, the operations are well-established, and there's genuine long-term opportunity here for the right person.

The Role

You'll be working across both workshop and field environments, with a varied scope that keeps things interesting. This isn't a one-trick role - you'll be hands-on with diagnostics, fault finding, and repairs across a range of underground mobile plant and equipment.

Key Responsibilities

  • Fault finding, diagnostics, and electrical repairs on underground mobile mining equipment
  • Scheduled and preventative maintenance on auto electrical systems
  • Reading and interpreting electrical schematics and drawings
  • Breakdown support in both workshop and field/underground environments
  • Drill servicing
  • Working to high standards of safety, quality, and workmanship

About You

  • Trade qualified Auto Electrician (Cert III or above)
  • Solid background in mining or heavy industry auto electrical work
  • Strong knowledge of hydraulic and electrical systems
  • Ability to read schematics and work autonomously underground
  • Underground hard rock experience highly regarded
  • Dual trade (Diesel Fitter/Auto Electrician) a bonus but not essential

Roster & Travel

Three mine sites - all within a 30km radius, 3 minutes from town:

  • 8/6 and 7/7 rosters available across all three sites
  • 2/2 roster available at two sites
  • FIFO from Perth - airstrip 5 minutes from camp
  • Fly in and start shift same day on most rosters

Camp & Facilities

  • Full camp in town centre - comfortable ensuite rooms, gym, wet mess
  • Good standard of food daily, plus 50% off meals at the local pub 3x per week
  • IGA and town facilities a short walk away
  • Minimal travel between camp, airstrip, and mine site

What's on Offer

  • Competitive casual rates + super on all hours
  • 4-year contractor tenure - genuine long-term stability
  • OEM training and development opportunities
  • Clear pathway into senior and leadership roles
  • A tight-knit crew culture across well-run underground operations
  • FIFO split 50/50 between your time and company time

If you're an experienced Auto Electrician who knows your way around underground mobile plant and you're looking for somewhere worth settling into, this one's worth a conversation.
