Based in Salt Lake City, Utah

At Rio Tinto, we are committed to creating an inclusive and welcoming workplace where everyone feels safe, respected, and able to succeed. We actively encourage applications from women and from people with diverse backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives. We know that great technical capability comes in many forms, and we’re focused on building teams that reflect the communities we operate in and support each other to do their best work.

We’re Finding Better Ways™ to provide materials the world needs, now and in the future. Our values – care, courage and curiosity – guide how we work and how we treat each other.

About the role

We are looking for a Superintendent Resource & Mine Geology to lead the delivery of accurate, integrated geological knowledge and resource models that support safe operations, optimize mine value, and reduce geological risk.

This is a great opportunity for a strategic and collaborative leader to influence decision-making, strengthen technical capability, and enhance operational performance through high-quality geological insights.

Reporting to the Manager Surface Mine Planning and Geoscience and working within a cross-functional environment, you will:

Lead and develop the Resource & Mine Geology team, building capability and fostering a strong safety culture

Oversee resource modelling, estimation, and compliance with industry standards and governance requirements

Deliver orebody knowledge (OBK) and reconciliation insights to support operational and planning decisions and program improvement

Define and implement OBK strategies to manage geological risk and improve resource confidence

Ensure effective grade control and geological data acquisition and management to support design execution and value-stream performance

Collaborate across planning, operations, geotechnical, and metallurgical teams to optimize value delivery

Drive continuous improvement in geological practices, data integration, and modelling processes

About you

A commitment to the safety of yourself and your team (mandatory first bullet for all job adverts)

Bachelor’s degree in Geology, Geologic Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent experience)

Extensive experience in mine geology, including modelling, data analysis, and interpretation (typically 10+ years in mining or similar environments)

Proven leadership experience with the ability to develop and guide high-performing teams

Strong ability to collaborate and influence across technical and operational stakeholders

If you’re interested in this role and believe you can contribute, we would be delighted to receive your application, even if your profile does not match 100% of the qualifications.

What we offer

Be recognised for your contribution, your thinking and your hard work, and go home knowing you’ve helped the world progress.

A work environment where safety is always the number one priority.

Competitive base salary reflective of your skills and experience with an annual incentive bonus.

Access to top-tier family-friendly health programs including medical, prescription drug, dental, vision, life insurance coverage, and various voluntary benefits.

Excellent retirement plan including up to 6% defined company contribution; Generous 401k matching program.

Attractive share ownership plan.

Comprehensive leave policies which cover all the moments that matter in life: PTO (paid time off), paid holidays, and paid bereavement leave.

A generous parental leave policy, which ensures you’re able to spend quality time with your new family.

Discount programs for leisure purposes and access to Virgin Pulse with incentives supporting your wellbeing.

Access to our Employee Assistance Program (EAP), which provides confidential counselling or expert guidance for you and your family to help get through life’s challenges.

Where you’ll be working

Our Kennecott mine is a world-class, fully integrated copper mining operation, including a concentrator, smelter, and refinery, located just outside Salt Lake City, Utah, in the United States. We produce copper, precious metals including gold and silver, molybdenum, and sulfuric acid. Kennecott has been mining and processing minerals from the rich ore body of the Bingham Canyon Mine since 1903 and is one of the top producing mines in the world, comprising approximately 11 percent of U.S. annual copper production.
