Principal Environmental Approvals
Perth CBD | Head Office | Standalone Role
Forrestania Resources Limited (ASX: FRS)
Forrestania Resources (ASX FRS) is a junior Gold company on an exciting growth trajectory — evolving from explorer to emerging gold producer with two gold hubs commencing soon (Edna May and Lake Johnston).
As we advance our project pipeline toward development and production, we're building the team and systems that will underpin safe, compliant and responsible operations across our Western Australian portfolio.
We're now seeking a Principal Environmental Approvals specialist to lead environmental strategy, compliance and approvals across the business. This is a standalone, head-office-based role for someone who thrives working autonomously and is comfortable being the sole in-house environmental expert, backed by some site visits and close collaboration with operational teams.
About the Role
Reporting in the interim to our Perth-based Technical Director, this role provides both strategic advice and hands-on support across all environmental matters.
This role is about building as we progress and being a subject matter expert to this lean senior management team.
You'll play a key role in maintaining our Environmental Management System (EMS), coordinating regulatory approvals, and ensuring compliance with environmental obligations throughout site operations — from exploration through to production.
This is a genuine opportunity to help shape environmental strategy and systems within a growing ASX-listed company, with visibility to senior leadership and real influence over how the business approaches environmental management as it scales.
Key Responsibilities
This is a rare opportunity to join a growing ASX-listed explorer at a pivotal point in its journey toward gold production. You'll have genuine ownership of the environmental function, direct exposure to senior leadership, and the chance to build systems and processes that will support the company well into production. Based in our Perth CBD head office, you'll enjoy the autonomy of a standalone role while remaining connected to site through regular visits and close working relationships with our operational teams.
If you're an environmental professional looking to step into a role with real autonomy, variety and impact, we'd love to hear from you.
