Based in our Toronto head office (or remotely, with periodic travel), you will report to and work closely with the Principal Geologist – Data Manager. Together, you will lead the design, implementation, and stewardship of a centralized, multi-deposit geologic and assay database, while also supporting portfolio-site geology teams in their day-to-day data workflows. Secondarily, you will have opportunities to contribute to technical due diligence on new acquisitions, particularly around data quality, data room review, and database readiness.

  • Build and maintain a unified, centralized geologic and assay database spanning multiple deposits and portfolio companies.
  • Configure, administer, and optimize acQuire GIM Suite, including data structures, workflows, imports / exports, user roles, and security.
  • Develop and maintain standards and governance for data structures, naming conventions, metadata, and auditability across assets.
  • Prepare and maintain documentation, SOPs, and guidance materials for geologic and assay data management.

  • Build and maintain importers, exporters, and ETL workflows to streamline data capture from drilling, logging, laboratory, and field systems.
  • Develop and support reporting tools and dashboards to deliver timely information to site geologists, resource teams, and corporate management.
  • Collaborate with internal IT and external vendors to ensure secure, reliable, and efficient data flows.
  • Provide hands‑on support to site geology teams on database use, workflows, and troubleshooting.
  • Plan and deliver training sessions (on‑site and remote) on acQuire GIM Suite and related data workflows.
  • Help geologists optimise their logging, sampling, and assay workflows for data quality, consistency, and downstream use in resource models and mine planning.
  • Act as a key liaison between corporate data standards and site‑specific operational realities.
  • Data Quality, QA / QC & Technical Integrity

  • Support the design and implementation of QA / QC programs for drilling and assay data (standards, blanks, duplicates, umpire checks, etc.).
  • Work with resource geologists and consultants to ensure databases are clean, well‑documented, and fit for use in resource estimation and technical reporting.
  • Participate in data reviews and audits, including legacy data rehabilitation and validation projects.
  • Provide technical input to due diligence on potential acquisitions, focused on data quality, data completeness, and database structure.
  • Work closely with the Principal Geologist – Data Manager, resource geologists, exploration teams, mine planners, and corporate leadership.
  • Build relationships with site teams to ensure alignment between corporate data strategy and on‑ground needs.
  • Travel up to 25% of the time (up to ~one week per month), domestically and internationally, for implementations, training, and site support.
  • Qualifications & Experience

    Required :

  • Degree in Geology or a closely related field.
  • Minimum of 5 years combined experience in geology and geologic data management; 8–10 years total experience is ideal.
  • Experience working as a Project Geologist, Senior Geologist, or equivalent, with significant responsibility for drilling, logging, sampling, or data management.
  • Demonstrated hands‑on experience administering acQuire GIM Suite (configuration, workflows, data loading, security, and reporting).
  • Solid understanding of drilling, sampling, core logging, and assay workflows in exploration and / or mine production environments.
  • Familiarity with QA / QC concepts and best practices for geologic and assay data.
  • Strong verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to train and support geologists and technicians at varying levels of experience.
  • Willingness and ability to travel to project sites (sometimes remote) as required.
  • Considered an Asset :

  • Experience with mine planning and modeling tools such as : Deswik, Leapfrog, Origin, Vulcan.
  • Experience with other geologic database platforms such as : Geobank, Fusion, DataSHed, MX Deposit.
  • Experience logging core and / or managing drill programs (RC and / or diamond).
  • Experience building dashboards or reports for technical and management audiences (e.g., Power BI, Tableau, or similar).
  • Experience standardising data across multiple deposits or operating sites and building a corporate data model.
  • Personal Attributes

  • Hands‑on and pragmatic – comfortable working directly with data, drilling into issues, and helping site teams solve real‑world problems.
  • Detail‑oriented and structured, with a strong focus on data quality, consistency, and traceability.
  • Collaborative communicator who can build trust with both corporate staff and site‑based geologists and technicians.
  • Change champion who can help drive adoption of new systems and standards in a constructive, supportive way.
  • Curious and continuous learner, staying current with evolving tools, integrations, and best practices in geoscience data management.
  • Equally comfortable in office and field environments, and able to adapt to different cultures, jurisdictions, and operating contexts.
