• Permanent FIFO (5,2,4,3) role from Perth to various sites across the Pilbara
• Help us meet our aspirational goal of being THE BEST OPERATOR

About the role

All progress begins with pioneers. At Rio Tinto, it begins with you.

Together with our people, we’re designing a system that takes the best practices from every corner of Rio Tinto and other industries under one roof to become the Rio Tinto Safe Production System (RTSPS). We are involving our workforce in its design. It will be built with input from the frontline. It will be how we operate our assets, manage performance and support our people. We see a huge potential to simplify how we work, stabilise our operations, collaborate and share best practice.

You will be there from the start. As a Stream Lead, you will be part of one of our most significant transformation programs in recent history. You'll join a newly created team of high performing individuals, each bringing their own complimentary skill set, background and leadership experiences to form a truly diverse RTSPS deployment team.

This is a great opportunity for those who put people at the center, have a change mindset and a genuine interest in our fundamental principle of being the best operator. This role requires demonstrated leadership experience in driving change and developing capability across our frontline operational leadership streams. You will work collaboratively with our existing teams to enhance, change and shift our mindset and behaviours towards achieving sustained success across our business. A key part of this role is the expectation to be flexible when needed to mobilise across various teams and sites.

We are an open, connected global team that includes some of the industry’s best and brightest minds. We offer competitive, performance-focused remuneration and a wide range of benefits to reward your contribution. With a global reach, the opportunities to develop and grow your career are broad and exciting.

What you’ll bring

It is crucial for success in this role that you bring a deep curiosity to your work, one that drives you to challenge the status-quo and present solutions that will help us to work smarter each and every day. This coupled with the courage to take risks, learning as much from your mistakes as the successes, will see you champion the normalisation of failure as a pathway to ultimate success.

• A commitment to the safety of yourself and your team
• Commitment to RTSPS mindsets and behaviours (transparency, simplicity, supportive leadership, empowerment and continuous improvement)
• Experience in an operations, maintenance or operations support role
• Ability to communicate new ideas, influence others and manage conflict
• Ability to work in a team collegially
• Exceptional organisational skills including the ability to manage fluctuating work levels and competing demands
• Well-developed analytical thinking and problem-solving skills
• Experiences in teaching, training or coaching
• Current C Class driver’s license

Although not essential, you may also bring:

• Leadership experience
• Lean qualifications or experience
• Project management experience

What we offer

Be recognised for your contribution, you're thinking and your hard work, and go home knowing you’ve helped the world progress.

• A work environment where safety is always the number one priority
• A permanent position working directly for Rio Tinto
• A competitive base salary reflective of your skills and experience with annual incentive program
• Comprehensive medical benefits including subsidised private health insurance for employees and immediate family
• Attractive share ownership plan
