* Embed closure strategies into life-of-asset planning across mining, refining, and smelting operations.


* Review site-specific plans for rehabilitation, decommissioning, and decontamination.


* Consolidate complex inputs technical, environmental, and stakeholder-driven into long-term strategies that span decades.


* Engage with internal teams and regulators to ensure compliance and deliver clear, effective communication.


* Contribute to financial provisioning and support closure studies across Western Australian operations.


* Define handback criteria and lead structured discussions with stakeholders to support successful land rehabilitation.

What’s on offer


* A competitive executive salary that reflects the strategic impact of your role.


* Executive coaching, leadership training, and access to industry events to support your growth.


* Opportunities to invest in Alcoa’s future through employee share plans.


* Visibility across senior leadership and potential progression into corporate or operational executive roles.

What you can bring to the role


* A Bachelor’s Degree in Engineering, Environmental Science, Geology, or a related field.


* Extensive experience in mine closure, environmental management, or a similar discipline.


* Strong knowledge of regulatory frameworks (DMPE, EPA) and closure best practices.


* The ability to simplify complexity and communicate clearly with diverse stakeholders.


* Experience developing long-term plans with incomplete or evolving data.


* Proficiency in project management and environmental monitoring tools.
