Who we are 

We’re a bold team with a bright future; and we’re looking for people who want to be part of it.  

Evolution Mining is a premier global gold company operating six mines across Australia and Canada. We’re transforming mines and uplifting careers. We’ve extended the mine life of our Ernest Henry Operations to 2040 and doubled its ore reserves. We took our Cowal Gold Operations underground in just seven years. We’re transforming our Red Lake Operations, restoring it as a premier Canadian gold mine. That kind of ambition creates careers, not just jobs.  

When we asked our people what they enjoy most about working at Evolution, two things came up across every site: career growth and the quality of the people. Here, you’ll work alongside people who care, who push one another to be better, with leaders who are?there to support you.

This role would suit someone who enjoys working in a fast-paced environment, building strong supplier relationships and solving supply chain challenges before they impact operations.

Based at our Ernest Henry Operations and reporting to the Supervisor – Inventory & Rotables, you’ll:

• Manage purchase orders and supplier follow-up activities to support the timely delivery of goods and services
• Coordinate with suppliers, warehouse teams and end users to ensure materials are available when needed
