Senior Dragline Engineer

Posted: 3 Oct 2009
Location: Australia
BHP Billiton Mitsubishi Alliance (BMA) is Australia’s largest coal producer, with nine mine sites and a coal loading port in Central Queensland. As the world’s largest seaborne coking coal supplier, and part of the BHP Billiton group, BMA is uniquely poised to offer experience and career development opportunities difficult to find elsewhere.

Norwich Park Mine is a highly successful open cut mining operation with an unparalleled commitment to safety and environment. Located 24km south east of Dysart and 266km south west of Mackay, Norwich Park began production in 1979, and is currently operating an annual production capacity of 4Mtpa ramping up to 6 million tonnes of coking coal.

We are currently seeking an experienced Senior Dragline Engineer, tasked with safely and effectively planning, coordinating and continuously improving the mining plan layout, maximising resource utilization through effective and efficient mining methods. Reporting to the Operational Planning Superintendent, the successful candidate will play a leading role in providing customer focused engineering services to achieve production targets through the analysis of mining efficiency, effectiveness and future planning. Additionally, you will have an opportunity to coach and mentor other team members within the Technical Services Group.

Specific responsibilities include the following:

* Planning and coordinating safe and timely dragline operations
* Ensuring minimal delays through effective scheduling and planning of the dragline operations
* Effectively communicating the requirements and expectations of the required work to our dragline superintendent
* Conducting safety audits and regular safety observations (SAO’s)
* Reviewing, monitoring and developing recommendations to improve dragline performance planning
* Mentor and coach junior engineers in dragline planning and operations
* Ensuring compliance with the mine's Safety and Health, and Environmental Management Systems and Coal Mining Safety and Health Act and Regulations

With significant senior level dragline engineering experience in open cut coal mining, demonstrated exposure to truck and shovel / drill and blast operations is further required. Proficiency in the use of Vulcan is essential and an understanding of XPAC and Xeras will be further advantageous. Degree qualified in an engineering / mining related discipline is mandatory, whilst additional supervisory qualifications are highly desirable. The successful candidate will demonstrate effective leadership and communication skills, with proven experience in both mentoring and project improvement capabilities.

BMA has an overriding commitment to health, safety, environmental responsibility and sustainable development. The HSEC aspects of our projects and operations are critical to our success. Therefore, supporting our Zero Harm philosophy, a demonstrable commitment to Health, Safety, Environment and Community is essential.

With a strong focus on work / life balance, our employees enjoy the vibrant town of Dysart which provides quality services and facilities to enhance any lifestyle, situated only 250km west of Mackay and the Whitsunday Coast. This position provides flexible working conditions, and the choice of subsidised local accommodation or FIFO options.

The size and magnitude of our business provides significant opportunity for professional development, attractive salary packages with performance based bonuses, unique BHP Billiton employee share programs and access to the BHP Billiton superannuation program.
