About Mt Arthur Coal

Mt Arthur Coal is an open-cut coal mine 100 per cent owned by BHP. Located in the Hunter Valley, New South Wales it's the largest producer of energy coal in the region, operating alongside olive growers, wine makers, horse breeders and the nearby residential community of Muswellbrook.

You will benefit from a rewarding career path and an excellent remuneration package inclusive of competitive salary, performance bonus, employee share options and a relocation package to take up a residential role in the Hunter Valley.

Pathway to 2030 – be part of the legacy

This role offers a rare opportunity to:

Be part of the legacy of one of NSW’s most significant mining operations
Build your career through involvement in a mine closure process
Contribute to rehabilitation planning and the transition of the site to its next productive land use
Help define what “good” looks like in late life operations and responsible closure
