We're already deep into 2025–26, and with just months until EOFY on 30 June 2026, mining, resources, engineering, and construction companies are accelerating hiring to lock in talent, claim deductions, and hit budgets strong before the new financial year kicks off.
Major Pilbara iron ore expansions, surging lithium/rare earths/nickel projects, gold developments, and chronic skills shortages in trades, operators, engineers, project controls, and supervisory roles mean demand for elite talent is skyrocketing — right now.
Techforce is scaling nationally and urgently needs proven Senior/Principal Recruitment Consultants to own this high-stakes resources surge, build unbeatable pipelines, and deliver record placements in the final push to EOFY and beyond.

- Warm, established desks — Immediate live clients, active mandates, and ready pipelines from day one — perfect for hitting targets before 30 June
- Uncapped commissions — Top performers regularly clear $200K+ OTE, with 2026's demand (and EOFY hiring spikes) fuelling even bigger potential
