Form of workAbout us
The Aurenne Group is a private company who acquired the historic Mt Ida - Bottle Creek gold field, 80 km west of Menzies in 2019.
Last mined by Norgold in the late 1980’s and following extensive resource definition drilling from 2017, a successful PFS and DFS. Commissioned by GR Engineering Ltd in April and May 2023, the newly constructed Mt. Ida Gold Processing Plant is a 1.5m tpa CIL plant.
As a private company our family owners recognise the most important building block to success lies in the strength of this ‘Team’, building one that shares the Group’s vision to be different. Sure the mining industry is booming in Western Australia – but finding the right people fit is no easy task.
At Aurenne we strive to build a quality operation that is ‘special’ where being part of the ‘Team’ is an important component of the work experience. Accordingly, we provide our Team with the tools they need to succeed - whether it be ‘new equipment for new projects’ , or building an airstrip to facilitate easy site access, or even construction of our new Forest Cabin Village at Mt. Ida which is truly second to none.
We are always conscious of the need to focus on our people as the key to being successful – so we take a different approach. Unlike other companies that focus simply on the 1 day a month they pay their staff, at Aurenne we focus just as much on the other 29 days. Sure we need to provide competitive packages for that 1 day but we focus just as much on providing people with a work experience to be proud of and an environment that allows the other 29 days and the time away from families and friends to be acceptable and hopefully enjoyable.
We are always seeking people to join our team. With the new Mt. Ida project underway we are actively seeking those that want to be different. So if that sounds like you and you want to focus on all working days in a month as opposed to just holding out for that 1 day, then look us up. If the 1 day is all you focus on then please give us a wide berth - our people are different.
