• Provide geotechnical engineering support to site Engineering teams across all aspects of rock mechanics and excavation stability.
• Work with long-term and strategic planning teams to establish geotechnical guidelines and incorporate them into life-of-mine plans and studies.
• Develop internal rock mechanics best practices and support site teams in incorporating them into mine designs.
• Oversee geotechnical investigation programs, structural geology assessments, and data interpretation.
• Conduct or coordinate third-party numerical modelling and analysis for new mining areas, extraction techniques, and changing site conditions.
• Identify, assess, and communicate geotechnical risks and recommend appropriate controls and mitigation measures.
• Complete regular Critical Control Verifications to ensure as-built conditions align with design and QA/QC systems are functioning as intended.
• Mentor junior Engineers and promote geotechnical best practices.
• Work with Safety & Training to ensure ground control training programs are technically accurate and effective.
• Conduct internal audits of site records and practices to support regulatory compliance and technical due diligence.
