Australian Surveying Graduate Program null

At Newcrest, it's our vision to be the Miner of Choice.  

The Australian Association of Graduate Employers has ranked Newcrest Mining in the Top 75 Graduate Employers for 2023 as voted by graduates. 

What We Offer

Get ready to level up your mining game with our 2-year grad program. You’ll get experiences you won’t find anywhere else. You’ll be rotating between 12 months at our Telfer site in WA on a FIFO schedule and another 12 months at our Cadia site in Orange, NSW. A few select disciplines might even include a rotation to the HQ in Melbourne or Perth. 

These rotations will set your mining career up for success as you will be exposed to vastly different mining methods and deposit styles. And as we also have mine sites in PNG and Canada, the international opportunities are very real beyond your graduate program.

We're all about your growth. As part of the program, you'll also get to spend a week in Melbourne meeting all our other Australian graduates, exploring the city, building relationships, and working on your development goals and leadership skills. 

Your Mine Surveying Graduate program will include surface surveying, measurement and recording of surface mine workings, Global Navigation Satellite System experience and equipment management, drone surveying, underground surveying, survey markups and designs in underground development areas and much more! 

Our Graduate Program will commence in January 2024.
