  • Conduct field visits to active quarry sites to support planning, investigation, and operational needs.

Land, Permitting, and Compliance Support
  • Gather, review, and document property boundaries, setbacks, easements, zoning requirements, agreements, and other land use information relevant to mine planning.
  • Assist with the preparation of mine plans and documentation required for regulatory agencies and permitting processes.
  • Coordinate with consultants, contractors, and internal stakeholders on mine planning and permitting related projects.

Business and Strategic Support
  • Assist with feasibility studies, operational improvement projects, and capital planning initiatives.
  • Prepare reports, presentations, maps, and supporting documentation for leadership and operational teams.
  • Identify opportunities to improve safety, operational efficiency, reserve utilization, and long term mine development strategies.
  • Stay current on industry trends, technologies, and best practices within the aggregate and mining industries.

Qualifications:
Education and Experience
  • Bachelor's degree in Mining Engineering, Geology, Geological Engineering, Civil Engineering, or a related field preferred.
  • At least 1 year of experience in mine planning, geology, aggregate operations, or a related technical field preferred.
  • Experience with aggregate mining operations, drilling programs, reserve modeling, GIS, or QA/QC processes is preferred.
  • Professional Geologist (PG), Fundamentals of Geology (FG), or Professional Engineer (PE) certifications are a plus, but not required.

Technical Skills
  • Working knowledge of surface mining methods, mine planning principles, and aggregate operations.
  • Experience with Carlson, AutoCAD, ArcGIS, GIS software, drone mapping, or similar mine planning and mapping systems preferred but not required.

  • Ability to communicate technical information clearly to both technical and nontechnical audiences.
  • Strong attention to detail and commitment to accuracy.
