Job Description

At CoreStaff we pride ourselves on looking after our employees, engaging with you onsite, and rewarding you for doing a great job. Feel like part of the Crew, not just another candidate sent to an assignment and forgotten about.

About Our Client

Our client operates one of Australia’s largest development-stage gold deposits, located approximately 250km southeast of Darwin. The project offers significant scale and long-term potential, with strong infrastructure in place, supportive local communities, and proven economic viability. With multiple development pathways and ongoing growth, it presents an exciting environment to be part of a major mining operation as it progresses.

We’re seeking a Geologist with 2–5 years’ experience to join a hands-on, site-based role. This is a great opportunity for someone looking to build on their experience in a structured environment, with exposure to both core-focused work and broader geological responsibilities.

Key Responsibilities

  • Core cutting, marking, and sample preparation
  • Core orientation and validation
  • Geological logging and data collection
  • Sample management and dispatch coordination
  • Supporting grade control and general site geology tasks
  • Maintaining safe and organised work areas

About You

  • 2–5 years’ experience in a mining environment (gold experience preferred)
  • Solid skills in core cutting and orientation
  • Experience with general geology tasks such as logging and sampling
  • Strong attention to detail and commitment to data quality
  • Able to work independently and adapt to site routines

What’s on Offer

  • $70 per hour (flat rate)
  • 8:6 roster – dayshift only
  • 6-month contract
  • On-site accommodation (single room, shared facilities)

This is a self-sufficient camp environment, so you’ll need to be comfortable cooking and maintaining your own space while on swing.

Benefits:

  • Immediate start
  • Weekly pay
  • Career development opportunities
  • Exclusive access to our benefits platform that offers savings at over 60 major Australian Retailers across the country.
