Feeling stuck in a job that goes nowhere?
Maybe you’ve been watching mates head into the mining industry, earning six-figure rosters, while you stay clocked into the same shift you’ve worked for years. Here’s the thing: you don’t need to pack up and move to the outback to start your mining career. In fact, you can get your dump truck ticket right here in Brisbane, and it could be the start of something far bigger than just another job.
Brisbane’s Best Kept Secret: Where to Get Your Dump Truck Ticket
Mining can seem a world away when you’re living in Brisbane, but that world is closer than you think. At our purpose-built 25-acre training site in Aratula, just over an hour from the CBD, you’ll climb into the cab of real, full-sized haul trucks. It’s a safe, large-scale simulated environment built to replicate mine site operations without the hazards of a live mine. Local training with real trucks and mine-style conditions.
