Kick-start your next move in blasting with Platinum.
We're on the hunt for a Drill & Blast Engineer to join our crew. Enjoy the security of a permanent role with a 8:6 roster in an on site role where you're more than just a number.

This is the perfect role for someone who’s had experience mentoring junior team members and keen to take the next step in their people leadership journey. You’ll want the best of both worlds with a mix of being on site and staying connected to head office through regular visits, while being supported by a team that genuinely invests in your growth.

Why You’ll Love Working with Us:

Consistent 8:6 roster with long-term clients when on site with adjusted rosters when you work from the office
Comfortable living in local camp accommodation with great facilities
FIFO from Brisbane or Rockhampton
Long service leave schemes that reward loyalty
Clear development pathways, succession planning and career progression
A small, close-knit technical team where collaboration and development are a key focus

This move is ideal for you if you:

Have built a solid technical foundation
Are motivated by structured development, planning and long-term career growth
Want exposure to experienced industry leaders in a supportive team environment
Looking to lead and support a team under the guidance of our Technical Services Manager
Want hands-on involvement in drill & blast design, QA, stakeholder engagement and continuous improvement
Value relationship-building and strong communication as much as technical capability

What You’ll Do

You’ll support drill & blast delivery across design, QA, stakeholder liaison, and operational improvement on site. Your work will include:

Running drill & blast design, QA and performance reviews
Working closely with site engineers, production teams and clients
Liaise with the client directly to ensure business needs are understood and met
Supporting juniors with mentorship and coaching
Assisting with troubleshooting, data analysis and continuous improvement
Being based on site, providing technical in time support to our crew on the ground and managing head office stakeholders

What You’ll Need

Must-haves:

Right to work in Australia without restrictions
Experience in Drill & Blast
Proven experience leading or mentoring others
Able to obtain a Queensland Explosives Security Clearance or hold one
Ability to translate complex technical information into simple, actionable insights
High level of interpersonal skill, with the ability to build rapport quickly and maintain positive internal and external stakeholder relationships
Resilience, agility, versatility and willingness to work in a dynamic operational environment
Able to travel to site and work on an 8:6 roster

Nice to have:

Mining operational experience on the bench (e.g., Blast Crew, Shotfirer)
Experience using mine planning or blasting software
Previous exposure to drill & blast design, QA, or analysis
