Finding better ways to provide the materials the world needs.
We’re looking for a Specialist Mechanical Engineer to join our team at Yarwun Alumina Refinery. In this senior role, you’ll provide expert engineering support and asset management oversight for the Digestion Area, working with critical equipment such as mills, high-pressure digesters, pumps, and piping systems.
This is a site-based role with an office on-site. While flexible work arrangements (e.g. partial working from home, adjusted hours) are available, you must be based in Gladstone and able to attend site as required.
This role will suit not only those already in senior positions, but also individuals ready to step up into a senior role. If you are an RPEQ and looking to take the next step in your career,
