🌟 Graduate Geologist – Start Your Exploration Journey with SXGC

Monday – Friday | 5:2 Roster | Kilmore & Sunday Creek, VIC

2-Year Fixed Term | Exploration Team | Start January 2026

At Southern Cross Gold Consolidated Ltd (SXGC), we’re building something exciting – an exploration story with real momentum, real ambition, and real opportunities for early-career geologists to grow fast. As we ramp up activity at our Sunday Creek project, we’re looking for a Graduate Geologist who’s eager to learn, contribute and be part of a high-performing team.

________________________________________

Why SXGC?

Because your work here matters.

When you join us, you’re joining a team that values curiosity, integrity and a genuine love for geology. We believe early-career geologists should get hands-on exposure – not busywork. Here, you’ll build confidence and capability through real field experience, meaningful responsibilities, and the chance to directly influence exploration outcomes.

What you can expect:

✨ Close collaboration with senior geologists

✨ Mentoring, exposure & accelerated learning

✨ A supportive team culture where you can ask questions, test ideas and grow

✨ A stable Mon–Fri roster with local work

✨ Purpose-driven exploration with momentum and long-term vision

About the Role

Every day will bring new learning opportunities – both in the core shed and in the field. You’ll be contributing to exploration activities that matter.

You will:

🔹 Log drill core and cuttings with accuracy and consistency

🔹 Maintain and manage geological databases

🔹 Assist with field mapping, sampling and geological observations

🔹 Support senior geologists with interpretation, preparation and daily activities

You’ll walk away with a strong foundation in real exploration geology – the kind you can’t learn in a classroom.

________________________________________

Who You Are

You don’t need years of experience. You need passion, drive, and the right attitude.

You’ll succeed here if you are:

✔ Degree-qualified in Geology (minimum)

✔ Early career (0–2 years’ experience)

✔ Honest, reliable and motivated

✔ Excited about hands-on exploration work

✔ Keen to learn, contribute and grow within a supportive team

✔ Living within ~1 hour of site to support safe daily travel and work life balance

If you’re someone who shows initiative, works hard and brings a strong team mindset – you’ll fit right in.
