Our strategy is to focus on creating a safe work environment where our employees feel strongly connected to our values and objectives, and where the capability of our people is key to our success.

About the Role

This is an opportunity to join the Asset Performance and Improvement team at BHP where you will lead transformational strategy and performance improvement projects for the business across our range of operations in Copper, Nickel, Iron ore and Metallurgical Coal. We are currently recruiting for a role in our Improvement Programs team. Reporting to the Manager Improvement Programs, you will:

  • Lead cross-functional teams to deliver transformational improvement programs, from the initial diagnostic phase through to implementation on any of our operations, or biggest business challenges around the globe.
  • Contribute broadly to best practice capturing and replication across our operations.
  • Coach and embed improvement best practices in operations-based improvement teams

You’ll be working closely with a fantastic team of passionate professionals and further supported by our Operational Performance Insights team and a network of local Asset Performance and Improvement professionals.

About You

Do you thrive on difficult challenges? Do you see opportunity everywhere? Do you need to be part of the solution, rather than just identifying a problem?

If this sounds like you and you want to work with some of the best in the business, across the globe, on high impact projects to deliver rapid results we want you to apply.

We are looking for someone who can manage complexity and ambiguity, think strategically, solve problems collaboratively, and analyse, synthesise and communicate insights using data to drive real operational change.

We value our relationship with our customers (operations globally) and provide trusted insights to both senior decision makers and the front line of our operations, so attention to detail is key, and we love people that can bring an insatiable curiosity to understanding and resolving problems and have demonstrated this in the past.

You will ideally have experience working in operations leadership, planning, strategy or performance improvement divisions of a resources or industrial company, or relevant experience from a top consulting firm.

Lastly, if you are passionate, keen to develop and make a difference while you do it and think you fulfil even some of the role description above, we encourage you to apply.
