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 Senior Geotechnical Engineer to provide advanced geotechnical expertise supporting the safe, sustainable, and compliant management of Kennecott’s Tailings Storage Facilities (TSFs) and associated water management infrastructure. In this role, you’ll be a key technical resource within Tailings & Water Services, supporting long-term asset stewardship through sound geotechnical engineering, performance monitoring, continuous improvement, and proactive risk management. You’ll help ensure alignment with Rio Tinto standards, applicable regulatory requirements, the Global Industry Standard on Tailings Management (GISTM), and Engineer of Record (EoR) recommendations.

What you’ll be doing Reporting to the Technical Manager and working within the Technical Support team in Tailings & Water Services, you will be:

Provide geotechnical engineering expertise across the planning, design, construction, operation, monitoring, and closure planning of Tailings Storage Facilities, supporting alignment with design intent and industry best practice.
Lead geotechnical investigations and performance evaluations using instrumentation data, field observations, telemetry systems, and site inspections to identify emerging risks and inform operational decisions.
Support tailings risk management and dam safety programs through geotechnical assessments, risk reviews, Tailings Action Response Plans (TARPs), and implementation of recommendations from the Engineer of Record, regulators, and independent reviews.
Provide quality assurance and quality control oversight during Tailings Storage Facility construction and embankment raises, verifying conformance with approved designs, specifications, regulatory requirements, and Rio Tinto standards.
Develop and maintain clear technical documentation, including monitoring and dam safety reports, regulatory submissions, Operations, Maintenance and Surveillance (OMS) manuals, Emergency Action Plans (EAPs), Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), and annual construction reports.
Support compliance with regulatory, environmental, and Rio Tinto requirements through inspections, audits, permit activities, and continuous improvement initiatives for tailings and water management.
Collaborate with Operations, Engineering, Environmental, Projects, Closure, and external technical partners to resolve complex issues, progress work, and communicate geotechnical risks and recommendations clearly.

About you We’re looking for someone whose experience aligns with the key requirements below. You do not need to meet every “helpful for success” item to apply - if you bring relevant experience and are excited by the opportunity, we encourage you to submit an application. Required for Success

Experience interpreting geotechnical investigations, instrumentation and monitoring data, field observations, and performance trends to support engineering decisions and risk management.
Experience applying geotechnical engineering principles to design review, construction support, quality assurance/quality control, operations, or dam safety activities.
Ability to prepare and review technical documentation and communicate geotechnical risks and recommendations with operational, engineering, environmental, project, and external stakeholders.

Helpful for Success

Experience with the Global Industry Standard on Tailings Management (GISTM), tailings governance frameworks, Engineer of Record processes, or dam safety programs.
Experience developing or applying Tailings Action Response Plans (TARPs), Operations, Maintenance and Surveillance (OMS) manuals, Emergency Action Plans (EAPs), regulatory submissions, or annual construction reports.
Experience providing construction quality assurance or quality control oversight for tailings embankments, earthworks, dams, or similar geotechnical works.
