A hands-on opportunity to make a real impact on an established open-pit mining operation.
We are looking for an experienced Mine Production Manager / Mining Operations professional to take ownership of the mining function at an established open-pit operation in Limpopo.
Working closely with the General Manager and technical planning team, you will provide the operational expertise that connects mine planning with execution — challenging plans, assessing whether they are achievable and holding the mining contractor accountable for delivery.
We're open to the right background, but you will ideally have:
- Proven open-pit mining production/operations experience
- Strong experience managing or holding mining contractors accountable
- The confidence to interrogate plans, understand the numbers and make sound operational recommendations
- A practical understanding of drilling, blasting, loading, hauling and stockpiling
- MG/chrome experience would be advantageous, although other open-pit commodities will be considered
- A relevant mining, engineering, geology or related qualification would be advantageous
This is an opportunity to join a lean, agile operation where your expertise will have genuine influence. As the operational right hand to the GM, you'll have the opportunity to improve efficiency, shape the mining function and make a visible contribution to the continued growth of the operation.
If you're a strong open-pit mining professional who knows how to turn a plan into production and isn't afraid to challenge the numbers, we'd like to hear from you.
