GEOPHYSICIST
MINERALS EXPLORATION
ExploreGeo is a minerals exploration geophysical consultancy, based in Perth, Western Australia. It supports three Consultant Geophysicists who have significant global exploration experience and involvement in discoveries. The group uses processing and inversion software, written by the group in order to enable it to provide a more customised solution to clients. It also has in-house computational facilities to support large 3D inversion problems and invests heavily in developing cutting edge software tools. The company is committed to providing a high quality service to its clients around the world.
The position will be based from our spacious and well-appointed office in Wangara, which is ~20km north of the Perth CBD. Some field work is possible but it is expected to be occasional and of short duration. ExploreGeo is, by design, a small group so each team member has the opportunity to have a significant impact on the success of the group.
The ideal candidate will have the following attributes;
-
one to two years in the field.
-
a well-recognised honours degree in geology and geophysics and a solid grasp of physics and maths (second year level minimum).
-
first class communication skills, particularly with regard to written reports.
-
be able to work in Australia without an employer supported visa.
-
have pride in your work and not accept sloppy output.
-
have a clear understanding that, with clients and field crews scattered across the time zones of the world, you cannot expect to work a regimented nine to five, Monday to Friday roster. The hours of work are flexible but expect to put in at least 40 each week, not exclusively from the office.
-
be easy to get along with and able to work independently
This position could equally suit a practising geologist with a geophysics degree or a geophysicist with a geology degree.

The successful applicant will be well-rewarded, have access to intensive mentoring and can expect to have a lot of fun in the relaxed and flexible working environment at ExploreGeo.
