As an Entry-Level Underground Miner, you'll be considered for a range of underground opportunities, including Truck Operator, Nipper, OR General Service Miner, based on your skills, aptitude and operational requirements.

No prior mining experience is required. We'll provide the training, support and development to help you build the skills needed for a rewarding long-term career at BHP.

In these roles, you will gain hands-on experience in:

Operating large mining equipment, including Toyota Landcruiser 4wd manual vehicles, trucks, Rock Breakers (Excavator) and integrated tool carriers (ITs)
