About The Opportunity
The Thiess Cadetship Program provides a pathway into professional Technical Services roles across our projects. We support employees to study part-time while continuing to work full time gaining real hands-on experience working in a functional technical team. Thiess will reimburse the costs of study fees upon successful completion of each course.
If you’ve thought about advancing your career in mining, this is your chance to do so in a supportive environment where you can learn on the job, enjoy flexibility to study and have your course fees paid for.
Additional support will be provided through programs including the Thiess Graduate Advisor Program and Graduate Development Modules and Graduate Mining Education Series.
Our cadetships program is currently offered for disciplines including mining engineering, survey and other technical disciplines (on a case by case basis). Each agreement is tailored to the applicant’s individual circumstances and field of study, but nominally four years duration if completing a two-year associate degree part time. At least two rotations in different roles, projects and functions related to their discipline of study will be offered.
