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've extended the mine life of our Ernest Henry Operations to 2040 and doubled its ore reserves. We took our Cowal Gold Operations underground in just seven years. 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?

As an Underground Jumbo Operator, you'll play a key role in our underground development team, operating jumbo equipment to safely deliver development headings and install ground support in line with mine plans and design requirements. You'll work alongside experienced mining professionals to drive safe, high-quality production outcomes at Ernest Henry Operations.

In this role, you'll:

  • Operate jumbo equipment across a range of underground development activities
  • Install ground support including bolts, mesh and other support systems
  • Read and interpret development designs and survey instructions
  • Maintain line, grade and development quality standards
  • Conduct pre-start inspections and report equipment defects.

Why Ernest Henry Operations?

Ernest Henry is a cornerstone asset in our portfolio. It has high-quality equipment, high standards and great management team. With a mine life to 2040 and doubled ore reserves, there are countless opportunities for people to evolve and give their career an uplift.

Choose what suits your lifestyle best. Live local in the close-knit community of Cloncurry, It's a great place for families, and you can enjoy our competitive live-local incentives and allowances. Or choose fly-in, fly-out (FIFO), with attractive rosters. Being away from home is easier when you get to stay in a high-quality camp with top-class facilities. Our FIFO people openly refer to the close-knit community as their second family.

The future here is bright; you could be part of it.

What we offer you

We support, develop and reward you to ensure you have a bright future. Here's how we back that up:

  • Referral bonuses
  • Attractive parental leave benefits (18 weeks)
  • Recognition program
  • Study assistance
  • Discounted health insurance
  • Flexible work options - we know flexibility looks different for everyone
  • Attractive rosters
  • Competitive live-local incentives and allowances for employees who choose to live in Cloncurry.

Does this sound like you?

You're an experienced underground mining operator with a strong commitment to safety, quality and teamwork. You take pride in delivering high-quality development work and enjoy working in a collaborative underground environment.

Ideally, you'll also have:

  • Competency operating underground development jumbo equipment, along with relevant mining tickets and a current driver's licence

  • Experience in jumbo boring and bolting within underground hard rock mining operations

  • Strong knowledge of ground support installation, mine development practices and safe work procedures

  • Good communication, observation and problem-solving skills, with a proactive approach to safety and housekeeping.
