Your work environment

Newmont has fully owned and operated the Tanami mine since 2002. The mine operates in the remote Tanami Desert of Australia. The mine and plant are located on Aboriginal freehold land that is owned by the Warlpiri people and managed on their behalf by the Central Desert Aboriginal Lands Trust. Tanami is a fly-in-fly-out operation in one of Australia’s most remote locations. Tanami is 270 km from its closest neighbours, the remote Aboriginal community of Yuendumu.

This position will be offered on a maximum fixed-term employment basis working on site at Newmont’s Tanami mine operation located in the remote Northern Territory working on a fly in fly out roster (8:6:8:6:4:3) from Perth, Darwin, Brisbane or Alice Springs. Mine village accommodation will be provided.

Full and unrestricted eligibility for employment in Australia will be essential.

Join us and unearth your potential in a global company that is at the forefront of shaping the future of the mining industry.
