Our client is a long-standing Australian mining organisation with a proud history and a strong international footprint. Their operations include one of the world’s most iconic base metals mines, and they continue to play a key role in supporting both local communities and the broader resources sector.
With a focus on operational excellence, innovation, and sustainability, the company values integrity, accountability, and continuous improvement, creating a workplace where talented people can grow and make a real impact.
We’re looking for a Senior IT Officer to join the team on an initial 6-month contract, with a strong potential to transition into a permanent role.
Working either on-site in Broken Hill(with accommodation support provided) or on a FIFO roster,
you’ll take ownership of IT operations across desktop support, systems administration, and network infrastructure.
You’ll play a key role in ensuring reliable and secure IT services across a complex operational environment - from on-prem systems to cloud-based technologies - while being the main point of contact for all IT matters across the business.
Key responsibilities include:
- Managing the installation, configuration, and maintenance of hardware, software, and cloud services
- Providing advanced technical support across desktop, system, and network environments
- Overseeing IT security, including firewall and antivirus management
- Monitoring performance, troubleshooting complex issues, and driving preventative measures
- Managing vendors and service providers to ensure high-quality IT delivery
About You
You’re a hands-on IT professional with experience supporting both on-premise and cloud environments, ideally within complex or remote operational settings. You take pride in solving problems quickly, keeping systems running smoothly, and providing clear communication to stakeholders at all levels.
You’ll bring:
- Proven experience across desktop support, systems, and network administration
- Strong technical understanding of cloud platforms and infrastructure
- Knowledge of IT security tools and practices
- Strong communication and stakeholder engagement skills
- A proactive, solutions-focused mindset
FIFO experience within mining or resources will be highly regarded, but not essential.
