About the Company

Hays has partnered with a leading resources organisation to recruit an experienced IT Systems Engineer for a site-based contract role at Hail Creek in Central Queensland. This role sits within a close-knit on-site technology team supporting critical systems and infrastructure across a regional mining environment.

About the Role

As the IT Systems Engineer, you will provide hands-on technical support across Microsoft systems, server administration, virtualisation, hardware, networking fundamentals and on-site user support. You will help maintain system availability, troubleshoot day-to-day issues, support site operations and work closely with internal teams, vendors and service providers where required.

This is a practical, site-focused infrastructure role suited to someone who is comfortable working autonomously, building strong relationships on-site and contributing to a stable, supportive team environment. The position is based at Hail Creek on a Monday to Friday roster, with on-site attendance required.

What you'll need to succeed

  • Microsoft administration experience, including Windows Server, Active Directory and Group Policy
  • VMware or virtualisation support experience
  • Hardware, PC builds, troubleshooting and onsite user support experience
  • General networking knowledge, including TCP/IP, routing and switching fundamentals
  • Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to work autonomously in a site-based environment
  • A practical, team-focused approach with strong communication and stakeholder engagement skills
  • You will also need to be based locally to Hail Creek, Mackay, the Whitsundays or Townsville region

What you'll get in return

  • You will secure a contract with the potential to run through to October 2027 and further extensions possible. Camp accommodation, meals, Wi-Fi, gym, pool and full onsite amenities are provided during the week.
  • This is a strong opportunity to join a well-organised, supportive environment where your systems and infrastructure experience can make a genuine impact.
