Full Job Description

Blackjack Milling Pty Ltd is a subsidiary of Native Mineral Resources (NMR) which is a publicly listed minerals exploration company with a strong portfolio of advanced gold and base metals projects in Queensland. The Company is focused on unlocking value through disciplined exploration, strategic acquisitions, and the advancement of high-quality assets with clear development pathways.

A key milestone in NMR’s growth has been the acquisition of the Blackjack Processing Plant in the Charters Towers region of North Queensland. Blackjack provides NMR with an established production base and a strong platform for ongoing operations. This achievement marks an important phase in the Company’s development, supporting continued mining and processing activities. Alongside current production, the Blackjack site offers significant exploration potential, with multiple priority targets and strong scope for future resource growth across the surrounding tenements.

NMR is committed to building a sustainable, safety-focused and high-performing organisation that supports long-term value creation for shareholders, employees, and the communities in which it operates.

An exciting opportunity has become available for an experienced Technical Services Manager to join our team in Charters Towers.

About the role

The Technical Services Manager will provide leadership and governance across all technical services functions, supporting safe, efficient, and sustainable mining operations. This role is integral to mine planning, operational performance, and strategic decision‑making.

Key Responsibilities:

Reconcile planned versus actual performance and drive continuous improvement.
Lead all mine planning activities, integrating geology, survey, geotechnical, drill and blast, in line with production and business targets.
Manage all drill and blast design, execution, fragmentation performance, and contractor interfaces.
Lead short-term, mid‑term and life-of-mine planning, geological modelling, survey validation, in line with production and business targets.
Coordinate all survey activities including pit pickups, set out, as-built surveys, volume reconciliation, stockpile surveys, and statutory survey support.
Act as a key technical advisor to senior leadership and stakeholders.
Provide leadership and mentoring to technical services personnel across engineering, geology, and surveying.
Analyse performance data and identify opportunities for continuous improvement.

Key Skills and Qualifications

Bachelor’s degree in Mining Engineering, Geology, or a related discipline.
Minimum 10 years’ experience in mining technical roles, including at least 3–5 years in senior technical leadership or management positions.
Extensive experience in open-cut gold mining operations.
Strong technical expertise in mine planning, resource estimation, grade control and reconciliation.
Proficiency in mine planning and geological software (e.g. Deswik, Datamine, or similar).
Demonstrated leadership capability in complex operational environments, with the ability to lead multidisciplinary technical teams.
Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to present technical information to executive management, the Board and external stakeholders.
Demonstrated experience acting as a Competent Person under the JORC Code (2012 Edition), including preparing, reviewing and signing off Mineral Resource and/or Ore Reserve information for ASX announcements and other public reporting.
Postgraduate qualifications (MBA, Master's degree or Chartered Professional status) will be highly regarded.
