  • Support post-incident reviews, audits and regulatory inspections, and recommend improvements to site readiness.
  • Communicate preparedness requirements, coordinate employee and contractor awareness, support mutual aid arrangements, and report on program performance.
Job Qualifications and Skills:
  • Diploma or certificate in Emergency Management, Fire Services, Occupational Health & Safety, Mine Rescue or a related discipline, or equivalent experience.
  • Minimum 5 years of experience in emergency response, mine rescue, firefighting, industrial emergency services or a related field.
  • Experience coordinating emergency response programs, training or emergency response teams.
  • Experience in underground mining or a remote industrial operation.
