Mining

Recruitment that understands the operation.

Specialist recruitment for Australia's mining and resources sector, from exploration and mine development through operations, processing and corporate functions.

Discuss Your Hiring Needs

We know the sector because we
work in it every day.

Our Mining & Oil and Gas team partners with miners, contractors, OEMs, METS businesses and consultancies across Australia. The consultants recruiting mining roles stay inside the market, so the conversation starts with an understanding of the work, not a list of questions copied from the position description.

That experience spans open cut and underground operations and commodities including coal, iron ore, gold, bauxite, copper, nickel, lithium, uranium, zinc, lead, silver and rare earths.

What we recruit across mining.

Mining Engineering & Technical Services

Mining engineers, geologists, geotechnical engineers, surveyors, mine planners, drill and blast, and technical services leadership.

Processing & Metallurgy

Metallurgists, process engineers, plant operations and processing leadership across concentrators, refineries and processing plants.

Operations & Maintenance

Production and operations management, maintenance planning and execution, reliability engineering and asset management.

Projects & Corporate

Project managers, contracts and procurement, HSEQ, finance, commercial and executive appointments.

At the senior end, our mining appointments include an Executive General Manager of Business Development for a major Australian coal producer, alongside general management, technical leadership and corporate roles across the sector.

I've worked with Resourceful Recruitment on a number of occasions seeking the provision of upper management personnel. I've always found the consultants to be trustworthy, thorough, and aligned with my specific requirements. They have an extensive knowledge of the industries in which they operate.

Managing Director, Mining

The realities that decide whether a
mining hire sticks.

A mine planner moving into an underground operation, a metallurgist joining a remote processing plant and a maintenance leader stepping into a producing asset are not interchangeable hires. Commodity, mining method, asset environment, roster, remuneration, leadership context and career motivation all shape who will accept the role, perform in it and stay.

That is why we recruit around the operation first. Geography matters, but only as part of the bigger question: what will make the right person want this job, and keep wanting it once they arrive?
