Underground Mining Crew – Goldfields WA (Project & Site-Based Roles)
Whartons Mining Services Pty Ltd
Whartons Mining Services is a locally owned WA contractor with 40+ years of hard rock underground knowledge and leadership.
We are proud to be apart of the foundation of hard rock mining in the WA Goldfields, and we're growing. We're not here to fill seats — we're building solid underground crews made up of people who take pride in the job, communicate well, and hold the line on safety and standards.
This isn't just a job. We want to improve how you show up — on site, on crew, and in life. How you operate out side of work is just as important as how you lead on the job.
Roles available
* Shift Bosses
* Service Crew
* Long Hole Drillers
* Jumbo Operators
* Charge Up Crew
* Bogger Operators
* Airleg Miners
Whartons' Point of Difference
1) Owner-led, local, fast decisions
You're not a number in a labour-hire machine. Issues get solved fast because you can actually reach decision makers.
2) Built by underground people (40+ years knowledge)
Real underground leadership with practical coaching. Standards aren't theory — they're lived.
3) Project-style performance crews (not seat filling)
You're joining a team that's built to deliver outcomes — metres/tonnes, quality, safety — not "warm bodies on a roster."
4) Handpicked A-grade workforce
Whartons actively filters for attitude and pride in craft. The crew around you lifts the standard instead of dragging it down.
5) End-to-end support that removes the headaches
Mobilisation, logistics, HSE, compliance and performance support are handled properly so you can focus on mining and getting home safe.
6) Growth + whole-of-life support
Training, pathways, and development into leading hand/shift boss/project roles — not just "here's your day rate."
