Full Job Description

Date: 27 May 2026

Location: Kathleen, Western Australia, Australia

Company: Liontown Resources Limited

Kathleen Valley, Western Australia | Technical Services | 8:6 Roster | Permanent

Who are we?

Liontown Limited (ASX: LTR) is one of Australia's newest and most exciting lithium producers. Our Kathleen Valley Lithium Operation in Western Australia is a world-class, tier-one asset with a 20+ year mine life — and we're now scaling underground production while planning the next phase of the operation's long-term future.

As Kathleen Valley grows, so does the complexity and importance of long-term mine planning. This role sits at the heart of that work.

The Opportunity

Reporting to the Technical Services Superintendent, this is a senior technical role with a clear purpose: to bridge the gap between life-of-mine strategy and what the site planning team executes day to day.

You'll take the medium-to-long-term vision; Life of Mine designs, budget-level timelines, and strategic planning outputs; and translate them into actionable, executable plans that the Technical Services Team on site can work from. It's a role that demands both technical rigor and the ability to communicate across levels, from senior technical stakeholders to frontline engineering teams.

This is a full-time, site-based permanent position on an 8:6 roster, with one week in every eight based out of the Perth office, providing a connection between site operations and corporate technical planning.

What You'll Be Doing

Own the budget planning horizon (2 years), translating Life of Mine designs into practical, executable strategies for the site team.
Develop and manage budget-level timelines that align underground mining activities with corporate production targets and life-of-mine strategy.
Act as the primary planning link between the Principal Mining Engineer and site-based Technical Services team, ensuring strategic intent is clearly communicated and consistently applied.
Build and maintain medium and long-term underground mine schedules using Deswik IS, integrating geological, geotechnical, infrastructure, and operational inputs.
Partner with the Principal Mining Engineer on Life of Mine schedule development, continuously refining plans in response to operational performance and updated resource estimates.
Collaborate with Planning, Geotechnical, Ventilation, and Infrastructure to ensure long-term plans reflect site constraints and are fully executable.
Provide clear, well-structured planning outputs and technical reporting that supports decision-making at both site and corporate level.
Identify planning risks and opportunities early and work proactively with the broader Technical Services team to address them.

What We're Looking For

Degree in Mining Engineering or a closely related discipline.
7+ years of experience in underground mining engineering with a strong focus on mine planning; particularly medium and long-term scheduling.
Proven ability to develop Life of Mine and budget-level plans in a hard-rock underground environment.
Proficiency in Deswik software for both development and stope designs.
Experience working across organisational levels, translating strategic planning into site-executable programs.
Strong analytical skills and attention to detail, with the ability to manage competing priorities and deadlines.
Excellent communication and interpersonal skills; you'll be a central connector between planning, engineering, and operational teams.
National Police Clearance (within the last 6 months) or ability to obtain one.
Ability to pass a pre-employment medical and drug and alcohol screen.

Why Liontown

At Liontown, you'll join a team helping power the clean energy future — and you'll do it on one of the most significant new lithium operations in the world. Our culture is built on people who take ownership, think long-term, and bring out the best in those around them.

This role offers genuine technical depth, a direct line to senior leadership, and the satisfaction of seeing your long-term plans brought to life on site. Being site-based with regular Perth office time means you stay connected to both the operation and the broader organisation.

Submit your resume and a brief cover letter outlining your relevant experience. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis — don't wait.
