About Us

K92 Mining Ltd is a publicly listed company operating the Kainantu Gold Mine in the Eastern Highlands of Papua New Guinea. We are entering a phase of significant expansion and this, coupled with a strong balance sheet and significant known deposits, makes it an exciting time to join an organisation committed to excellence in mining operations, safety, and environmental sustainability.

About the Role

Reporting to the Manager – Group IT, this position is responsible for designing, developing, and maintaining enterprise-wide analytics and reporting solutions. The role supports site operations in PNG and corporate teams in Brisbane and Vancouver by delivering timely, accurate, and consistent operational and financial insights.

This position integrates data from core operational systems including Pronto, Deswik.OPS, OSI PI Historian, and Cognos, standardises KPI definitions across the business, and enables data-driven decision-making on equipment performance, people movements, supplier spend, and project delivery.

Key Accountabilities

Business Intelligence Delivery: Design, develop, and maintain Power BI dashboards that support daily, weekly, and monthly operational and corporate decision-making.
Data Integration & Automation: Build and maintain automated data pipelines integrating Pronto, Deswik.OPS, OSI PI Historian, and Cognos into a governed reporting framework.
Data Governance & Standards: Establish and enforce consistent KPI definitions, naming conventions, data models, and visual standards across all reporting assets.
Operational Insight & Performance: Translate operational and financial data into actionable insights on equipment performance, resource utilisation, supplier spend, and delivery performance.
Stakeholder Engagement & Enablement: Partner with Operations, Finance, Projects, HSE, and IT stakeholders to understand reporting needs and drive adoption of BI tools.
Vendor & Contractor Oversight: Review and validate deliverables from external BI providers and progressively reduce reliance on third parties by building internal capability.
Cost & Efficiency Support: Provide analytical insight to support cost control, budget tracking, and identification of optimisation opportunities.
Documentation & Knowledge Management: Develop and maintain technical and user documentation for dashboards, metrics, and data models.
