• Coordinate logistics, permitting, and regulatory compliance with external partners and stakeholders
• Uphold environmental standards and internal policies throughout field operations

About You

• Bachelor’s degree in Geology (postgraduate qualifications are a plus)
• 1–5 years of hands‑on exploration experience across various deposit types (base metals preferred; precious metals experience beneficial)
• Self‑motivated, resilient, and solutions‑focused with strong organizational skills
• Experience with both reverse‑circulation and diamond drilling, including QAQC protocols and data management
• Comfortable working in remote locations and/or internationally; prior Canadian field experience is a bonus
• Familiarity with geological software (Leapfrog, QGIS, ioGAS) and a keen interest in expanding technical capabilities
• Proficient in Microsoft Office (Excel, PowerPoint, Word)
• Strong communicator with the ability to work independently and collaboratively
• Willing and able to travel internationally for project campaigns and spend extended time in the field
• Holds a valid manual driver’s license

What’s Offered
