Who we are 

We’re a bold team with a bright future; and we’re looking for people who want to be part of it.  

Evolution Mining is a premier global gold company operating six mines across Australia and Canada. We’re transforming mines and uplifting careers. We’ve extended the mine life of our Ernest Henry Operations to 2040 and doubled its ore reserves. We took our Cowal Gold Operations underground in just seven years. We’re transforming our Red Lake Operations, restoring it as a premier Canadian gold mine. That kind of ambition creates careers, not just jobs.  

When we asked our people what they enjoy most about working at Evolution, two things came up across every site: career growth and the quality of the people. Here, you’ll work alongside people who care, who push one another to be better, with leaders who are there to support you. 

What’s the opportunity? 

As our next Supervisor - Development, you'll lead our underground development crews to safely deliver development activities in line with operational plans.

Reporting to the Superintendent - Development, you'll provide frontline leadership, coordinate resources, and ensure production targets are achieved while maintaining high standards of safety, compliance and team performance.

This role is ideal for a leader who enjoys developing people, driving results and fostering a strong safety culture in an underground mining environment.

Based at our Ernest Henry Operations, this role will see you:

• Lead underground development crews to safely achieve production targets
• Coordinate people, equipment and resources to maximise performance
• Work closely with Technical Services to execute mine plans
• Coach and develop team members to build capability and support career growth
• Promote a strong safety culture through visible leadership and risk management
• Conduct workplace inspections, incident investigations and statutory reporting
• Drive continuous improvement and operational excellence.

Why Ernest Henry Operations? 

Ernest Henry is a cornerstone asset in our portfolio. It has high-quality equipment, high standards and great management team. With a mine life to 2040 and doubled ore reserves, there are countless opportunities for people to evolve and give their career an uplift.  

Choose what suits your lifestyle best. Live local in the close-knit community of Cloncurry, It’s a great place for families, and you can enjoy our competitive live-local incentives and allowances. Or choose fly-in, fly-out (FIFO), with attractive rosters. Being away from home is easier when you get to stay in a high-quality camp with top-class facilities. Our FIFO people openly refer to the close-knit community as their second family.   

The future here is bright; you could be part of it.
