Job Description:

🌟 Truck Driver – Keep the core moving from site to lab

Monday – Friday | 5:2 Roster | Kilmore & Sunday Creek, VIC
Permanent | Operations Team | Start June 2026

 

We’re looking for a switched-on driver to keep drill core, samples and supplies flowing between Sunday Creek, our Kilmore core shed and the Bendigo assay lab.

 

Why SXGC?

Because your work here matters.

Sunday Creek is one of Australia’s best new gold and antimony discoveries – and it’s growing fast. We’re an ASX & TSX-listed mining company building world-class operations in the Victorian Goldfields, and we need people who take pride in keeping the wheels turning. Your runs keep our drilling program moving, our geologists supplied, and our results landing on time.

 

About the Role

 

Drill core doesn’t deliver itself. As our Truck Driver, you’ll be the link between site, the core processing facility and the assay lab – making sure samples, supplies and consumables move on time, every time. You’ll work alongside drill crews, field assistants, geologists and supervisors as part of the Exploration team, splitting your week between Sunday Creek and our Kilmore core shed.

 

What You’ll Drive

🔸 Daily core runs from Sunday Creek to the Kilmore core processing facility

🔸 Weekly assay sample deliveries to the On Site Laboratory in Bendigo

🔸 Material runs across Melbourne and Bendigo for pallets, core trays, calicos and consumables

🔸 Forklift operations at site and shed – loading, unloading, stacking, strapping and cataloguing pallets and core

🔸 Daily pre-start inspections on truck and forklift, plus load restraint and housekeeping

🔸 Warehousing and retrieval of historic core and pulps for geologist review

 

Who You Are

 

You’re a self-starter who can run your own day. You take pride in doing things properly – straps tight, paperwork in order, gear clean and ready. You enjoy the rhythm of a regular run but stay sharp when plans change, and you back the people around you to get the job done.

 

Your Background

✔ Heavy Rigid (HR) truck licence – manual

✔ Current WorkSafe Forklift Licence

✔ Previous machinery experience and load restraint know-how

✔ Comfortable with basic written documentation (pre-starts, dispatch records)
