SITE Senior Executive (SSE)

More Than Just A Number

There aren’t many Australian mine sites where you’ll walk past the mine owner in the hallway, have a barbeque with the Chief Operations Officer, or take your partner and kids up to site to ride in heavy machinery and see what you do for a living. These aren’t rare instances at Vitrinite, our family-focused and inclusive culture means everyone is seen and heard at the human level, never just an employee number.
