About Potash and the Jansen Project

Imagine being part of something truly world-class, something that’s shaping the future of sustainable agriculture and responsible resource development. That’s what the Jansen Potash Project offers.

Located about 140 kilometres east of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Jansen is set to become one of the largest and most sustainable potash mines in the world. At approximately US$15.3 billion investment, it marks the biggest private investment in Saskatchewan’s history, and a bold step forward for BHP in Canada.

Beyond its scale, Jansen will create lasting value for people and communities. The project is expected to support thousands of jobs during construction and hundreds of permanent roles once production begins.

Whether you're looking to grow your career, make a meaningful impact, or be part of a legacy project, Jansen could be the place where it all begins.

• Identify emerging bottlenecks, resource constraints, risks, and operational conflicts, escalating issues before they impact performance.
• Facilitate operating mode reviews and support decision-making when constraints or production priorities change.
• Coordinate communication and response plans for operational variances and ensure effective handover between shifts.
• Ensure operational events, variances, and lessons learned are documented and incorporated into future planning and improvement initiatives.
• Track operational performance metrics and identify opportunities to improve safety, reliability, efficiency, and product quality.
