Australian Mining Jobs for Students and Employment

If you are a student, whether fresh out of study, or still studying and looking for work over the holidays, you may be interested in the type of work available for students. If you are still studying and want to get some real work experience under your belt, then you may be interested in obtaining short term work. If you are after longer term position, mining companies are always keen to hire fresh graduates and in some cases you could start earning up to $70,000 straight away. There is a range of job positions available for graduates, these include:

  • Geologists
  • Surveyors
  • Mining Engineers
  • Health and Safety Graduates
  • Planning Engineers
  • Mechanical Engineers

If you are looking to gain these types of positions, then you may want to know:

  • What license/s you need
  • Whether you need mining experience
  • How much you will be paid
  • And how soon you can start

Considering there is a large number of mine sites located throughout Australia, there may be a position suitable for a student close to where you live. Otherwise you may be interested in a fly in/ fly out (FIFO) position. For a FIFO position you could expect to work up to 8 to 10 days at a time, fly home for a few days off before being flown back to work again.
