About the role

Reporting to the Underground Manager, the Underground Mining Superintendent is responsible for leading the safe, disciplined and efficient execution of underground operations in line with the Short Range Forecast (SRF), budget and Evolution’s standards.

This role is critical in setting the tone for safety and performance.

A key part of your remit will be building capability within your Supervisors, strengthening leadership across crews, and embedding a proactive safety culture where accountability sits at every level.

You will actively remove barriers to performance, maintain a strong underground presence, and drive alignment across development, production and services to deliver on tonnes, metres and compliance targets.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead from the front to build and sustain a strong safety culture, ensuring standards are clearly understood, reinforced and consistently applied.
• Maintain a visible presence in the field, proactively identifying risks, coaching teams and reinforcing safe behaviors. 
• Take ownership of incident investigations, ensuring outcomes are thorough, practical and drive meaningful, lasting improvement. 
• Deliver the Short Range Forecast (SRF) safely and reliably, with a clear focus on consistency and plan compliance. 
• Oversee development, production, ground support, paste fill and services to ensure coordinated and effective execution. 
• Drive operational performance by improving cycle times, equipment utilisation and workforce effectiveness. 
• Work closely with Technical Services, Geology and Geotechnical teams to ensure plans are practical, aligned and achievable. 
• Develop and mentor Supervisors, lifting leadership capability and strengthening accountability across crews. 
• Identify and remove systemic constraints to improve safety, productivity and cost performance. 
• Maintain clear, timely communication across crews, peers and leadership to ensure alignment and transparency.
