As a Supervisor Engineering Mining, you'll support the successful delivery of Cadia Block Caves projects by coordinating engineering deliverables, technical handovers, and planning interfaces across Operations, Technical Services, and Studies teams. You'll play a key role in ensuring critical cave infrastructure and production projects are execution-ready and aligned for safe delivery.

As Part of Our Team, You Will

• Coordinate technical handovers between Studies, Projects, Technical Services, and Operations teams to ensure engineering work is ready for execution.
• Act as the primary engineering interface supporting the transition of project and study outcomes into operational implementation.
• Support planning, scheduling, and forecasting activities that enable safe and efficient cave ramp-up and project execution.
• Deliver mine designs and engineering outputs for underground development and production drilling and blasting activities.
• Collaborate with operational, technical, and project stakeholders to identify risks, improve delivery outcomes, and optimize engineering processes.

About The Employer

Newmont produces metals the world needs - safely, responsibly and with care for people, communities and the environment. With a 100+ year history, we continue to shape the future of mining through innovation and strong operational performance. By joining our inclusive, world-class team, you can help shape the future of mining and make a meaningful difference.

Cadia is a major gold and copper mining operation in central New South Wales, about 25 kilometres from the city of Orange and 250 kilometres west of Sydney. The site is known for the Cadia East underground mine - one of the world's largest gold deposits - which uses innovative block caving methods to produce gold doré and gold-rich copper concentrate. Unlike remote mines, Cadia is a residential (drive-in, drive-out) operation where many employees live with their families in nearby communities, enjoying the Orange region's excellent lifestyle and amenities.

Cadia's team has a collaborative culture built around safety, innovation and community partnership. We proudly support local towns through jobs and in-kind contributions and even run an Indigenous Buddy Programme to welcome and mentor new Indigenous employees. Working at Cadia gives you all the growth opportunities of a Tier-1 mine within a friendly regional setting - a place where you can advance your skills, be home with family, and contribute to both Newmont's success and the prosperity of local communities.
