We are an ASX listed diversified mining and exploration company with copper, zinc and gold operations in Australia. Our expanding portfolio, development projects, and exploration prospects make Aeris an exciting, growing company.
Our strategy is clear, and we are committed to growth.
We are focused. We know where we are going, and we need you to help us get there.
We are ambitious. Through production, exploration, and acquisition.
We are one team. We live our values and do what we say we are going to do.
We want you to be part of our success.

This role is responsible for initiating, planning, administration, management and close-out of Contracting and Procurement activities and will ensure associated Governance is upheld throughout; in close collaboration with key internal and external stakeholders.

We’ve had a big couple of years! In FY2021 Aeris Resources acquired Cracow Gold Mine in QLD and enjoyed exploration success at our exciting Constellation deposit at Tritton Copper Operations in NSW in FY2022.
In FY2023 Aeris completed its acquisition of Round Oak Minerals adding two additional producing mines to our portfolio, Jaguar in WA and Mt Colin in Qld, and the Stockman project. In future we expect to grow again.
This growth positions Aeris as Australia’s next mid-tier base and precious metals producer. Aeris will produce more than 60ktpa copper equivalent, roughly doubling our operating footprint.
Aeris’ Board and leadership team share a highly disciplined focus on operational excellence, and an enduring commitment to building strong partnerships with our workforce and our communities.
