As construction progresses at Mardie, we are continuing to shape our team. We are looking for an individual who is ready to be a part of this exciting project, where you will have the opportunity to really make an immediate impact.

The Company

BCI Minerals Limited (ASX : BCI) is an Australian owned mineral resources company with salt and potash as its initial focus. A future Tier One project, Mardie has been designed to produce 5.35Mtpa of high-purity salt and 140ktpa of Sulphate of Potash (SOP).

Using an inexhaustible seawater resource and 99% of the energy required produced by natural solar and wind energy, our Mardie project is a multi-generational sustainable opportunity that will supply the growing chemical, renewable energy, and agricultural industries with Salt and Sulphate of Potash for generations to come.

BCI Minerals are committed to establishing a safe, respectful, and inclusive workplace. We believe that individual differences, perspectives, and experiences make us even better at the work we do and should be recognised, respected, and valued.

Your ability to build strong relationships will be crucial—working closely with Superintendents, Supervisors, suppliers, and subcontractors to ensure smooth execution and open communication across the board. If you're passionate about optimisation and operational excellence, we want to hear from you!
