Contracts Specialist - 12 month contract (Residential)
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?
Be part of a growing commercial team supporting a high-performing mining operation, where your work directly enables site performance through strong contracts and procurement practices.
This is a hands-on Contracts Specialist role offering broad exposure across the operation, not a siloed portfolio. You’ll manage multiple contracts, work closely with operations and suppliers, and play a key role in improving how procurement and contract management is delivered on site.
This position suits someone experienced, practical and self-driven, comfortable working autonomously, managing competing priorities, and building strong working relationships in a fast-paced environment.
Based at our Mungari Operations on a 5:2 / 4:3 roster (10-hour days) and reporting to the Supply Superintendent, you’ll:
- Keep the operation moving by managing procurement and contract activities that support production, maintenance and capital works
- Lead and support end-to-end tender processes, including developing scopes of work, engaging suppliers and evaluating submissions
- Negotiate commercial terms and drive value through cost savings, performance improvements and strong supplier relationships
- Manage contract documentation, registers and compliance to ensure governance requirements are consistently met
- Work closely with operations, maintenance and Group Supply to deliver aligned, efficient commercial outcomes
- Resolve supplier issues relating to pricing, delivery and quality to maintain continuity of supply
- Identify and implement process improvements that strengthen procurement and contract management practices on site
Why Mungari Operations?
Mungari is a cornerstone asset in our portfolio, with a mine life to at least 2038. It’s operationally diverse, with opportunities to work on the surface or underground and a great team of people who care. Our recent expansion of the processing plant has more than doubled processing capacity from 2 million to 4.2 million tonnes per year. With open pit and processing all on one site, the operational diversity is ideal for uplifting careers.
The future here is bright; you could be part of it.
