Why BHPVisit website
We are supplying the resources the world needs to help build a better, clearer future. Copper for renewable energy. Nickel for electric vehicles. Potash for sustainable farming. Iron ore and metallurgical coal for the steel needed for global infrastructure and the energy transition.
About the roleAbout the Role Are you ready to apply what you’re learning at university at Australia’s global resources organisation, while working in diverse teams who will support, encourage, and help you build your technical skills and experience for your future?
From our Coal Operations across Queensland to the Copper Province in South Australia and Iron Ore in Western Australia, or various office locations - the BHP Australia Intern Program could be the perfect way to begin your career journey and gain valuable experience.
As a BHP Intern, you will work with us for 10-12 weeks over the summer break and build your own professional network with a range of technical experts and graduates and experience a range of working environments.
You will gain exposure to the resources sector at an early stage of your career and attend networking events with other interns and graduates. Plus, as a successful intern, you’ll get first access to our Australian Graduate Program opportunities or be invited back for another internship if you are in the earlier years of your degree.
As our Intern opportunities for engineering and science are residentially based near our mining operations or will require you to work on a Fly-In-Fly-Out (FIFO) roster, it is important that you are willing to consider either of these arrangements to undertake an intern role. Roles such as Technology and Finance will support our operations from our city locations, but they are never far from the action.
What we are looking for You’ll be a student who is between their second to penultimate year and is able to work with us over the summer break in Australia at the end of 2025.
