ESS are village managers for the Dugald Mine project and are filling positions for housekeepers, mine site cleaners, kitchenhands, bus drivers, administration staff, some trades and ground staff.

“Recruitment info session at Ibis Styles Mount Isa are 9.30 am or 1pm with 1:1 opportunities to follow.
