• Significant underground metalliferous mining experience, ideally in complex open stoping operations.
• Demonstrated experience in strategic, long-term or medium-term mine planning within a complex underground mining environment.
• Strong understanding of underground mine development, stoping sequences, ventilation, backfill, infrastructure, services and operational readiness constraints.
