Mining equipment varies incredibly in size, shape, power and usage. The environment in which the gear is used also varies widely requiring different skill and experiences to match the right job with the right mine site and employer.

As a result, finding an operating job where your specific skills and experience are useful can be difficult. At MPi we understand this and have consultants who can talk your language across all of these specific work places :

• Underground Operators

Let us help you find the best jobs, faster.

Our Promise is to be honest with you and advise you if we are not able to help. The vast majority of MPi's clients require us to present candidates with at least 12 months of recent Australian mining experience. Therefore, we recommend that people without Australian mining experience contact mining and contracting companies directly as they do sometimes directly employ candidates without Australian mining experience themselves.

Please refer to the FAQ section of our website here for more information on how to get into the mining industry. Additionally, we are affiliated with an organisation that specialises in assisting people get into the mining industry and we recommend you review their website at www.minedex.com.au
