Yard - Surface Operator

Join Our Team at McCreedy West

We’re looking for a Surface Operator 2 to join our team and support yard operations at McCreedy West Mine.

 
This is a hands-on role where you’ll help keep materials moving safely and efficiently across site — operating equipment, loading and unloading materials, organizing the yard, and supporting the day-to-day needs of the operation.

 
If you’re safety-minded, dependable, and enjoy hands-on work in an active mining environment, this is an opportunity to put that experience to work.

 
All Magna Mining team members are expected to work collaboratively with others, lead the way in health and safety, act with honesty and integrity, and foster an entrepreneurial spirit in pursuit of excellence.

What You’ll Be Doing

You’ll have the opportunity to:

• Perform assigned tasks in yard operations.
  

• Load, unload, and stage materials using approved equipment and procedures.
  

• Operate forklifts, loaders, and material handling equipment, if qualified and authorized.
  

• Support material distribution to site operations.
  

• Maintain organized yard storage areas and safe yard traffic flow.
  

• Handle and transport materials, including dangerous goods, in accordance with regulations.
  

• Conduct pre-operational checks and routine equipment inspections.
  

• Maintain clean, organized, and hazard-free yard areas.
  

• Follow all safety regulations, site procedures, and PPE requirements.
  

• Report hazards, discrepancies, equipment defects, and near misses promptly.
  

• Communicate yard conditions and operational needs to supervisors.
  

• Coordinate with Maintenance, Operations, and Logistics teams to support workflow.
  

• Identify opportunities to improve material flow, housekeeping, and yard efficiency.
  

• Perform other duties as required.

• Hold forklift or front-end loader certification 
  
• Have experience with JD Edwards
  
• Bring strong safety awareness and hazard recognition.
  
• Are reliable, accountable, organized, and comfortable working in a hands-on environment.
