Jumbo Operator
Mining People International
Posted 3 days ago
MPI partners with many of the major underground operations across WA, so instead of applying everywhere and guessing, you can come straight to us. We’ll give you an honest snapshot of what’s available — including rates, rosters, site conditions, and development opportunities — so you can make an informed move.
All roles are temp to perm (3–6 months), giving you the benefit of a strong casual rate initially, followed by the security of a long-term role once you’re established.
Coming from interstate? If you’re based over east and happy to cover your own flights to site, we’re open to considering you across a range of these opportunities.
What’s on Offer:
Multiple sites across WA on roster: 8/6, 7/7, 2/1, 2/2
$1500 – $2,000 per day (depending on experience), with competitive full-time rates
Super paid on all hours worked
FIFO roles across leading underground operations
Immediate starts with smooth, fast mobilisation
Ongoing opportunities if timing isn’t right straight away.
What You’ll Need:
Minimum 12 months underground Jumbo operating experience – bolt, mesh and bore
Experience on twin boom / modern development drills (e.g. Sandvik, Epiroc)
Ability to pass a pre-employment medical and police check
Valid Australian working rights.
🚀 The Bottom Line
If you’re a Jumbo Operator looking for better pay, better rosters, and solid long-term opportunities, it’s worth having a conversation.

Unfortunately, MPI are only able to consider people with appropriate and relevant experience, and who are either Australian Permanent Residents or have the necessary permits to work in Australia and whom are currently in Australia.
