✨ Step Into the Spotlight as a Tour Guide & Gold Pourer! ✨

If you love captivating an audience, thrive in high‑energy environments, and aren’t afraid of a little molten metal, this is your moment to shine — literally.

As one of our Tour Guides and Gold Pourers, you’ll become the face of an iconic WA experience. Your days will be filled with storytelling, showmanship, and a touch of alchemy as you bring the magic of gold to life for visitors from around the world.

What you’ll be doing:

• Lead unforgettable tours for school groups, tourists, media crews, corporate guests, and VIPs — from politicians to film and TV personalities.
• Steal the show in the Melting House, performing live gold‑pour demonstrations for crowds of up to 75 people as you transform molten metal into a gleaming 150oz gold bar.
• Master a 30‑minute scripted performance, delivering it with flair, confidence, and theatrical charm.
• Be a safety champion, confidently guiding visitors through safety and emergency procedures.
• Get creative by designing custom medallions using specialised software.
• Engrave and sell personalised medallions — including solid gold pieces — to visitors and corporate clients (yes, even bulk orders).
• Connect with a diverse global audience, sharing your knowledge of the gold industry and The Perth Mint’s rich history.
• Represent the Mint at major events, including tourism showcases and WA Week.
• Work flexibly, with availability across weekdays and weekends.
• Prioritise safety, ensuring your actions support a healthy and secure workplace for everyone.

What you bring:

• A second language is a big plus — especially Cantonese, Japanese, or Mandarin.
• A passion for customer service and creating memorable experiences.
• Confidence in public speaking — you enjoy being in front of a crowd.
• Bonus points for theatrical or performance experience.

If you’re ready to blend storytelling, craftsmanship, and a little bit of molten magic, this role might just be your golden opportunity.
