About the role

We’re seeking a Mine Infrastructure Technician to join our Underground Mining Team at Kathleen Valley, supporting the safe and efficient operation of our mine services infrastructure.

• Track offsite repairs and ensure required components and consumables are available.
• Record and report water balance data to support environmental compliance and internal reporting.
• Monitor water quality (TDS levels) in surface ponds for supply to underground mining.

• Experience working with pumping systems and poly pipe installation.
• Poly welding experience will be well regarded.
• Comfortable using Excel for basic data entry and tracking.
• Good communication and organisation skills, with a focus on safety and reliability.
