HST Officer

At Coronado Global Resources, we're committed to safely producing the resources the world needs while creating opportunities for our people to build rewarding careers.

We are seeking an HST Officer to join our Health, Safety & Training team at the Curragh North Open Cut Mine in Blackwater on a Fixed Term Contract until August 2027. 

Reporting to the HST Superintendent, this is a hands-on role supporting the implementation of our Safety and Health Management System through the provision of administrative support in daily monitoring, data management and training. You’ll work closely with frontline leaders and the broader HST team to help maintain compliance and support a strong safety culture across the operation.

What You’ll Do

Your role will be interesting and varied and will include:

• Provide on-the-ground support for safety initiatives and campaigns.
• Participate in field leadership interactions and help reinforce safe behaviours.
• Support supervisors with SHMS implementation and compliance checks.
• Conduct workplace inspections and hazard observations.
• Assist with data collection for safety, health and hygiene monitoring programs.
• Record findings and assist with tracking corrective actions.
• Support incident reporting and initial evidence collection.
• Assist HST Advisors and operational leaders with the implementation of corrective actions.
• Coordinate safety training and inductions.
• Maintain accurate safety records across Damstra, First Priority and other systems.
• Update safety metrics and dashboards and assist with internal and regulatory reporting.
• Identify opportunities for improvement through regular engagement with our workforce.

What You’ll Bring

This role would suit someone looking to continue building their career in health and safety within a mining environment. You’ll be comfortable spending time in the field, engaging with people at all levels and balancing practical safety support with reporting and administration.

Ideally, you will bring:

• Experience within mining or heavy industry is desirable, however not essential for someone developing their career in HST.
• Experience in training systems.
• A basic understanding of safety systems, processes and procedures.
• Strong communication and stakeholder engagement skills.
• Experience with systems such as First Priority, Mine Record, Damstra and ChemAlert would be advantageous.
• Experience in SAP would also be beneficial.

Why Join Us?

•  Where You Call Home Is Up to You: Whether that’s DIDO from the Capricorn Coast, Mackay & Surrounds or living locally in the welcoming community of Blackwater. We've got options to make work-life balance achievable, no matter where you’re based.
• Housing Support: You’ll have access to subsidised company housing with options to suit your lifestyle, whether that’s camp-style accommodation (with all meals & weekly cleaning included), a private unit, or a house suited to your family.
• This is a great opportunity to gain practical, on-site HST experience while working alongside experienced safety professionals and operational leaders at Curragh.

Interviews may be conducted prior to applications closing, so early applications are encouraged.
