Mining recruitment
Jess and the crew sort out your mining labour hire workforce when you need to scale up operations across Australia. They make themselves part of your team, focus on how your business works and what you need so you can get back to running the job.
They’ve supplied reliable mining crews for various roles such as mining operations, technical trades, administration and shut downs for years so they know what works on site and what doesn’t.
Because Jess and the crew know your site, they don’t waste time sending people that won’t last. We supply people who understand the demands, hours and culture of the mining industry.
Reliable workforce
How Jess and the crew get it done
Jess digs into how your site runs
What’s non-negotiable on the ground, inductions, PPE, medicals, site requirements.
They mobilise fast
If someone needs a hand clearing inductions or medicals, Jess’s team stays on until it’s sorted.
Start dates locked in
Start dates are locked in early and worked backwards so crews turn up ready to go. Same goes for camp, PPE, buses or flights.
People who stick
Because Jess gets the full picture upfront, you get people who fit your site and stick, not bodies to make up numbers.
My role is to talk to our clients, listen to what they need and want. I like to treat them like a mate from the get go because you'll find a more relaxed conversation and you'll actually get more detail about what they're after.

FAQs
How quickly can you get people on site?
AWX keeps an active pool of mine ready workers across operations, trades and machine operators in our database. We can mobilise workers within days, not weeks, depending on location, role and site requirements. We know the roles, rosters, safety and compliance requirements and what ‘site ready’ means.
What mining roles can you fill?
We supply labour hire and permanent staff across the entire mining workforce including production, operations, technical trades, supervisors, administration and shutdowns. If you need someone to hit the ground running, AWX has you covered.
How are mining recruitment agencies in Australia different from general labour hire agencies?
A specialist mining recruitment agency in Australia understands site rules, inductions and safety systems as well as fatigue management, rosters and FIFO/DIDO demands. We also get the cost of downtime when a worker isn’t fit for site. We build crews that last, perform and stay compliance in all mining environments.
How do mining recruitment agencies in Australia ensure workers are site ready?
Before anyone steps on site, AWX verifies all role specific and site required compliance including trade qualifications, site and client inductions, drug and alcohol testing, pre-employment medicals, right to work and visa compliance as well as Standard 11 and Coal Board Medical in the black coal space.
What happens if a worker is not the right fit on site?
We sort it. If a worker isn’t the right fit, AWX takes responsibility, we replace them and keep your operation moving because labour hire only works when the people fit the job, the crew and the site.
Can you support shutdowns and peak periods?
Yes. AWX regularly support shutdowns, project ramp ups and peak periods where reliable labour matters most. We plan mobilisation early so crews are ready when work starts and downtime is kept to a minimum.
Do you recruit across all mining regions in Australia?
Yes. While AWX have strong experience in regions on the east coast like the Bowen Basin and Central Queensland like Mount Isa, we recruit and mobilise both surface and underground mining crews across Australia through our local branches and national candidate network.
Do you support FIFO, DIDO and local mining roles?
Yes. AWX support FIFO, DIDO and residential mining roles depending on your site and location. We understand roster cycles, fatigue management and remote work conditions and recruit people who are prepared for it.
Do you have local teams on the ground near mining sites?
Yes. AWX has local branches across Australia backed by a national network. That means you get a dedicated local contact who knows your site and your local conditions, with the scale to support larger operations.
