Mill Shift Supervisor

Red 5 is an established and successful ASX 200 gold producer and explorer in an active expansion phase. The recent merger of equals with Silver Lake Resources has created a leading mid-tier ASX Gold producer, with three operating centres in Western Australia and one Canadian operation.
