Our People Rock

The true value in Aeris comes from two things: people and rocks. While our main business is copper, zinc and gold, we consider our people to be one of our most valuable resources.

Together we have created a workplace culture that is proactive, collaborative, results-based, and above all, respectful.  This is our people power and it creates a positive future for us, our stakeholders and our business.

Safety, health and wellness

We believe that a safe place of work is created and maintained by all team members. We aim to continually improve our safety performance and support the physical and psychological health of our people.

We prioritise the wellbeing of our people, as well as their health and safety and are proud to be a workplace of respect.

Supporting a Diverse Workforce

Aeris Resources is committed to promoting diversity and inclusion in our workplace. As an employer we value having an inclusive, equitable and diverse workplace and we aim to reflect the diversity of communities in which we live and work.

We look for many different skills and abilities, as well as how you can enhance Aeris and our culture. So, even if you don’t think you quite meet all of the skills listed or tick all the boxes, we’d still love to hear from you!
