QUARRY MANAGER | MAJOR QUARRY PROJECT | GERALDTON WA

Lead a Brand-New Quarry Operation Delivering a Significant Infrastructure Project

This is a rare opportunity to take ownership of a greenfield quarry operation from the ground up and leave a lasting legacy.

Our client is one of Australia’s largest and most respected construction materials and infrastructure businesses, with a long-standing reputation for safety, operational excellence and project delivery. They are establishing a new quarry operation near Geraldton to support a noted infrastructure project and are seeking an experienced Quarry Manager to lead the operation through to completion in June 2028.

WHY THIS OPPORTUNITY?

  • Lead a quarry from establishment through production and project completion
  • Full P&L ownership and operational responsibility
  • Play a key role in delivering a significant project
  • Join a market-leading resources and construction materials organisation
  • Build and develop a close-knit team with genuine influence on outcomes
  • Fixed-term project through to 30 June 2028, with potential future opportunities beyond the project
  • Residential Geraldton location preferred, with flexibility considered for exceptional candidates
  • Monday to Friday operation with practical site coverage arrangements
  • Opportunity to make a meaningful impact rather than inherit a mature operation

THE PROJECT

Located approximately 20 minutes from Geraldton, this quarry will produce granite material for an offshore infrastructure project.

The operation combines traditional quarry leadership with strict project delivery requirements, quality assurance protocols and biosecurity controls. You will work closely with customers, contractors, regulators, traditional owners, technical specialists and local stakeholders to ensure safe and reliable delivery throughout the life of the project.

ABOUT THE ROLE

As Quarry Manager, you will be the operational leader of the site and take responsibility for:

  • Safety leadership and statutory compliance
  • Production, drill and blast, crushing and load-out activities
  • Financial performance and P&L management
  • Quarry development and rehabilitation planning
  • Contractor and workforce management
  • Stakeholder and customer engagement
  • Quality, environmental and biosecurity compliance
  • Delivery of production targets and project milestones

ABOUT YOU

You will likely bring:

  • Current Quarry Manager qualification (required) and SSE qualification or ability to get one
  • Extractive industry or quarry management experience
  • Strong drill and blast knowledge
  • Experience managing production, safety and operational performance
  • The ability to lead teams in lean operational environments
  • Commercial acumen and confidence managing budgets and site performance
  • Strong stakeholder engagement and communication skills
  • A practical, solutions-focused leadership style

If you’re looking for a project where you can genuinely make your mark, lead a site from commencement and be part of something significant in the Mid West, we’d welcome a confidential discussion.

Please note that we are only able to consider candidates with relevant working rights

Interested? Please confidentially apply using the relevant button and I will be in touch, with no representation being made to the client until we have discussed in detail and you are comfortable with the potential fit.

You can also email me directly on ************************** or call/text on ************

If the above is in the right wheelhouse but not quite what you’re after at this time, feel free to drop me an email anyway. I specialise in Open Pit Tech Services roles – I’d welcome a confidential discussion about what good would look like for you and I can keep you informed as / when that right thing does arise.
