We are recognized for our agility, technical excellence, and client-focused approach.

As we expand our service offerings, these new leadership roles will be central to advancing business growth, strengthening market presence, and shaping the long-term success of the firm, while remaining closely connected to technical excellence and project delivery. You will provide strategic and commercial leadership for your discipline, supported by our executive leadership team, principal consultants, and dedicated finance, HR, recruitment, and marketing professionals.

  • Build, lead, and develop a high-performing team through recruitment, succession planning, mentoring, and strong people leadership.
  • Drive business development and market expansion by leveraging your professional network alongside Equilibrium’s established client relationships and reputation.
  • Own the financial performance of your discipline, including profitability, forecasting, and P&L accountability.
  • Monitor business performance against strategic objectives and provide clear reporting and insight to support executive decision-making.

What We’re Looking For

  • A Bachelor’s, Master’s, or PhD in a relevant technical discipline.
  • More than 15 years of industry experience within your area of expertise.
  • Demonstrated success in senior leadership, team development, and strategic client relationship management.
  • Experience working within multidisciplinary mining consulting teams.
  • A strong understanding of project, business unit, and enterprise-level financial management, governance, and reporting.
  • Strong analytical, problem-solving, communication, and interpersonal skills.
  • A mature leadership style, with a demonstrated commitment to mentoring, succession planning, and developing future technical leaders.

Join a collaborative, forward-looking firm where senior leaders have the opportunity to make a meaningful contribution to culture, capability, and long-term strategy. As a specialized and agile business, Equilibrium offers genuine scope to shape the direction of the organization while building a lasting legacy within the industry.

In addition to competitive salaries and benefits, these leadership positions offer attractive performance-based incentives aligned to team and company success.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
