This role is the perfect platform to showcase your technical ability and extensive mining engineering experience. Ready for a new challenge and for more development?
Palaris can offer you greater access to the strategic drivers of mining. You will have the opportunity to work on a range of projects from concept and feasibility to new mine execution and ongoing optimisation - all things that you likely won’t have on one site.
Combine this with a fantastic lifestyle opportunity for you and your family - no weekend work. Is this sounding like what you have been looking for? Have a chat to us now.
As an experienced underground mining engineer, have you wanted to be part of the bigger picture by gaining exposure to critical mining drivers such as ventilation and strategic mine planning? Always had an interest in the financial side of how things work in mining? At Palaris, you will get to see the bigger picture – we deal in this daily.
Ideally, the right person for this position is someone who has cut their teeth in one or many of the big mining houses and is now ready to not just be a number and be valued for their skills and experiences.
We are looking for someone who is aiming for a pathway to a Principal level role – we will support you in achieving this by challenging you and working on a development plan to ensure your success.

About you

You will have a minimum of 3-5 years operational experience in underground coal mines, along with short, medium and long term mine planning and mine studies (i.e. Concept, Pre-feasibility and Feasibility).
Understanding the importance of managing client relationships and expectations is a must to be effective in the role. From your depth of experience, you will have a strong professional network.
You will stand out from the rest if you have an understanding of study management, financial evaluations and/or trade off studies. Minimum requirements for the role:
• Tertiary qualifications in Mining Engineering (BE Mining)
• Additional qualifications in finance or business would be highly regarded
• Proficient in the use of mine planning software (i.e. Deswik, XPAC, Minex)
