Gold Operations

ABOUT THE PROJECT

Silverstone partnered with a leading Gold mining client to provide ongoing workforce support across their processing and crushing operations. At peak demand, Silverstone supplied up to 30 Process Technicians across multiple sites to assist with operational requirements. The workforce model was split with 50% engaged under a temp-to-perm recruitment pathway and the remainder supplied under contract recruitment while the client recruited for permanent roles.

Workforce & Resourcing

  • 30+ Process Technicians mobilised to gold processing facilities.
  • Crusher Operators & Support Staff mobilised to assist in expanded crushing operations, supporting increased output.
  • Disciplines Supplied: Process Technicians, Control Room Operators, Crusher Operators, and support trades.
  • Recruitment Model: Balanced approach between temp-to-perm and contract resourcing.
  • Retention: Many Silverstone candidates converted to full-time roles, strengthening the client’s long-term workforce.

Recruitment Strategy

  • Rapid mobilisation of processing and crushing personnel to support both operational continuity and project ramp-up.
  • Flexible workforce solutions tailored to client needs – short-term contract labour and temp-to-perm pathways.
  • Partnership approach working alongside both the client and its primary contractor to deliver expansion goals.
  • Safety-first focus ensuring all candidates met site compliance, medical, and induction requirements prior to mobilisation.
