About Copper SA Operations at BHP

BHP is a global resources company operating across more than 90 locations worldwide. Through Copper South Australia (Copper SA), we are building a leading copper portfolio that supports the global energy transition, supplying materials essential for renewable energy, electric vehicles and digital infrastructure.

For you, this is an exciting opportunity to grow your career, make a meaningful impact, and help shape the future of one of Australia's leading copper businesses.

About Prominent Hill

Prominent Hill is a well-established copper‑gold operation within BHP’s Minerals Australia portfolio, with a strong future and ongoing investment.

Located 650km north‑west of Adelaide, the site operates across underground and surface mining and is located on the traditional lands of the Antakirinja Matu-Yankunytjatjara people. Prominent Hill produces one of the highest grades of copper concentrate in the world.

A major shaft project is supporting underground expansion and extending mine life to at least 2040, creating long-term opportunities across the operation.

It’s a technically complex site where you can build your skills, take on new challenges, and be part of a team where safety and looking out for each other matters. new challenges, and be part of a team where safety and looking out for each other matters.

About the Role

Reporting to the Senior Production Engineer, you will be a key member of the production team, owning the detail in day-to-day operations while also stepping back to look for smarter, more sustainable ways of working. You will use data analysis and in-field observations to spot issues early, test ideas, and turn good concepts into practical plans.

You will join a collaborative, supportive team where your judgement and ideas are taken seriously. Safety is how we look after each other every day, not just something we talk about. In practice, that means you will be a trusted technical adviser for the production team, regularly working with frontline crews and planners to check the practicality of designs, refine schedules, and keep production moving safely and efficiently.

We work closely with Antakirinja Matu-Yankunytjatjara Traditional Owners, and this partnership is an integral part of our everyday operations.

Location: Prominent Hill, South Australia

Roster: 8 days on; 6 days off

Direct flights are offered from Adelaide (just over an hour) and Port Augusta (around 30 minutes).

Our 8 days on, 6 days off roster gives you a steady rhythm: focused time on site followed by extended time off, so you can plan life outside work.

Once you have spent your first few months on site building relationships and competence, there is scope for hybrid work flexibility, helping you balance on-site time with working from your home base.

In this role you will:

Design and review drilling, blasting and production plans working closely with experienced colleagues
Liaise with stakeholders to ensure drill and blast designs meet site requirements
Spend regular time in the field (typically 3–4 underground visits per on-site swing) to ensure drill and blast activities are completed safely and efficiently
Undertake QA/QC monitoring for production activities
Complete stope reconciliations and abandonments on completion
Manage and monitor the iKon electronic blasting system with comprehensive training and mentorship
Review and approve survey memos
Monitor and maintain quality data on underground performance
Lead projects that improve processes and practices - your ideas and observations will be encouraged and acted on
Assist other Mining Engineering functions as required
Assist with incident investigations and implement actions that support continuous improvement of the site’s safety performance
Conduct task observations and Critical Control Verifications (CCV) as required
Complete hazard identification, rectification and reporting in line with site requirements

About You

You are likely to be someone who has built a solid foundation in underground hard rock mining and is now looking for a role where you can take on more ownership, broaden your skills and have real input into how things are done.

Essential requirements:

Tertiary qualifications in Mining or Civil Engineering (other disciplines considered)
Experience working in an underground, hard rock, metalliferous mine
Underground practical experience completed
Commitment to working safely in a team environment and actively promoting safe production
Strong ability to develop and maintain collaborative working relationships
Valid driver’s licence

Preferred (but not essential):

Experience in drill and blast design in sub-level open stoping
Deswik suite software experience - we'll support your development
Short-term scheduling experience

Life at Prominent Hill

Life on site is designed to help you switch on for work and switch off when it matters, with a modern on‑site village that supports comfort, connection, and wellbeing:

Your own private, comfortable room to relax and recharge.
Great facilities including a state-of-the-art gym (open daily from 3am to 9pm, with personal training available), pool, sporting areas, and places to unwind.
A wide range of activities to stay active and social, including basketball, tennis, soccer, mini-golf, and a music room.
Opportunities to recharge your way, swimming, walking tracks between site and village, bike hire, and quiet spaces.
Dedicated areas to relax and disconnect, including gaming spaces and wellness options such as meditation or stargazing on the star deck.
Reliable Wi-Fi to stay connected with family and friends.
A unique site environment, including sunrises you won’t see anywhere else

And so much more!

At BHP, you’ll do meaningful work in an environment that supports you to perform at your best; on site and at home. That’s why our benefits are designed to support your health, your growth, and your personal balance:

Grow your career your way, with opportunities to develop and move across BHP
