  • Communicate progress, risks, and opportunities to key stakeholders.
  • Work closely with Mine and Resource Geologists to set modeling priorities aligned with operational requirements.
  • Collaborate with engineering and operations teams to support short- and long-term mine planning, maximizing ore recovery and minimizing dilution.
  • Support grade control, orebody knowledge transfer, and optimization of mill feed quality.
  • Integrate drilling, mapping, and reconciliation data to improve model accuracy and performance.
  • Support optimization of the 5-year mine plan and communicate geological risks and opportunities.
  • Assist the Geology Superintendent as needed and support model validation across the geology value chain.
  • Follow all HS&E policies and procedures, identify and mitigate risks, and promote safe work practices.

Qualifications
  • Bachelor of Science degree in Geology, Earth Science, Geological Engineering, or a related field
  • Ability to learn commonly used mining software
  • Minimum five (5) years' experience in mining or exploration geology preferred.
  • Proficient geologic modeling skills required in Leapfrog Geo preferred.
  • Demonstrate a genuine ability to work cooperatively with others as part of a leadership team and encourage collaboration, trust, and transparency across the organization.
  • Forward-thinking and adaptable to dynamic situations

What We Can Offer You
A comprehensive compensation package including a competitive medical, dental, and vision plan with national provider networks, a 401k retirement plan with employer contribution AND employer match, paid time off, company-sponsored medical clinics, company match share purchase program, and much more!
  • Work in a dynamic, collaborative, progressive, and high-performing team.
  • Endless opportunities to grow and learn with industry colleagues.
