Joining Arup

Arup's purpose, shared values and collaborative approach has set us apart for 80 years, guiding how we shape a better world.

Our Resources and Critical Materials business brings together expertise across mining, quarrying, waste, energy, water, infrastructure and environment to support the responsible supply of critical materials essential to society. As demand for critical minerals accelerates, we see a unique opportunity to redefine how mining projects are planned, delivered and operated, integrating sustainability, resilience and whole system thinking from the outset.

We are not a traditional mining consultancy. We bring whole system thinking across infrastructure, energy and environment to redefine project outcomes and support more sustainable development of mining projects globally.

You will bring together Arup’s multidisciplinary capabilities to support clients across the mining lifecycle, from early-stage strategy and planning through to design, development and operational support, while maintaining sufficient technical depth to lead and guide delivery of our projects.

• Support the delivery of advisory and technical projects spanning mining, quarrying, tunnelling and underground excavation projects across planning, design, development and operational support phases.
• Technical leadership to support the team with developing mining planning and design skills, as well as geological and geotechnical skills relating to mines and critical minerals.
• Integrate Arup’s wider capabilities, including environmental, social, infrastructure and energy expertise, into mining solutions.
