🌟 Core Shed Assistant – Build the foundations of a world-class exploration program
Tuesday – Tuesday | 8:6 Roster | Kilmore, VIC
2 Year Fixed Term Contract | Exploration Team | Start February 2026
At SXGC, we’re entering one of the most exciting and important phases of our journey.
As drilling accelerates and our understanding of the Sunday Creek system continues to grow, the quality of our core processing is more critical than ever. Accurate, consistent and safe handling of drill core underpins every geological interpretation and exploration decision we make.
We’re looking for multiple Core Shed Assistants to support this next phase. This is more than a support role — it’s an opportunity to play a hands-on part in transforming drill core into reliable data and helping build the systems, standards and culture that will support a world-class exploration and future mining operation from day one.

You’ll join a growing, hands-on team where safety, teamwork and continuous improvement are part of everyday work — not just words on a page.
