About Us:

Welcome to The Perth Mint, where golden career opportunities await.

The Perth Mint is an iconic Western Australian organisation operating on a truly global scale. Situated in East Perth for over 125 years, The Perth Mint is a premier tourist destination, an award-winning exporter, and a key supplier of precious metals to markets throughout the world. Our purpose is ‘to bring the wonder of precious metals to the world’.

There’s no organisation quite like it, with a variety of roles available, from engineers and chemists to artists and technicians.

The Opportunity:

We’re offering a day shift leadership role at our refinery near Perth Airport. This is your chance to step into a hands-on position where you’ll lead a team of process operators and take real ownership of production performance.

You’ll sit at the centre of our processing operations - driving safety, coordinating daily activities, and ensuring production targets, quality standards, and schedules are consistently met. From keeping workflows moving and eliminating backlogs, to overseeing compliance, reporting, and team performance, your impact will be felt across the entire operation.

This role suits someone who enjoys leading from the front, thrives in a fast-paced environment, and takes pride in building a high performing, efficient team.

About You:

You’re an experienced production leader with a background in processing plants or, ideally, precious metals refining. You bring strong knowledge of lean processes and a focus on continuous improvement.

You’re highly competent in Excel and reporting, using data to track performance and drive decisions. On the floor, you’re a visible leader - ensuring safety, supervising your team, and maintaining high standards across operations.

You’re organised, proactive, and solutions focused, with the ability to balance people leadership and production demands. Experience in refining, engineering, or a related field is highly regarded, along with leadership qualifications - but it’s your attitude, accountability, and ability to deliver results that will set you apart.

• Opportunity to work for an endorsed WORK180 employer
• Training and development opportunities
• Opportunities to be part of our wide and active range of Employee Resourcing Groups: Reconciliation, Gender, Culturally and Linguistically Diverse (CALD), Disability, Mental Health and Neurodiversity, and Perth Mint with Pride
