Job Description

ERM is seeking a motivated Managing Environmental Consultant, Mine Closure to join our Mine Closure team at one of our offices across Canada.

As a member of the Mine Closure team, you will act as a mine closure specialist for projects based primarily in Canada. Work will encompass all stages of the mine life cycle, including preparation of reclamation and closure plans to support existing mines (i.e., operations or closure), and development of closure plans that support provincial and/or federal environmental assessments. Our approach to closure focuses on integrating mine closure throughout the project lifecycle in a style that our clients have identified sets ERM apart. This is an opportunity to utilize established relationships with companies and consulting experience to provide technical leadership, strategic direction, and strong project management through our integrated closure lens. The successful applicant will have a working knowledge of the various aspects that guide mine closure, including experience with regulatory instruments and frameworks, such as ICMM and MAC. More broadly, the applicant must show an interest in applying knowledge and skills to help our clients solve complex challenges related to mine closure. This role has tremendous potential for career growth, with the successful candidate having opportunities to directly interact with clients and regulators, and participate in business development.

This posting is designed for a motivated, career-minded person who enjoys problem-solving and working within a multi-stakeholder environment. The following are responsibilities and requirements associated with the role.

RESPONSIBILITIES:
  • Provide technical expertise for closure and reclamation planning at all stages of the mine life.
  • Lead and/or support a wide variety of services for mining projects related to Capital Project development and environmental assessments and permitting, including the development of associated management plans. Expected deliverables the candidate will lead or significantly contribute to include reporting (including drafting reclamation and closure plans), data and literature review, and development of recommendations and mitigations for clients.
  • Be accountable for ensuring deliverables meet client expectations for scope, budget, schedule, and quality.
  • Mentor junior-level and mid-level consulting staff to support skillset development, including technical skills, project experience, and general consulting and decision-making skills.
  • Proactively engage and network with other ERM staff regionally and globally, for knowledge sharing, market monitoring, and business development coordination.
  • As needed, assume responsibility for project management, including task delegation and direction, subcontractor management, health & safety protocol management, monitoring of commercial performance, quality review of deliverables, and interaction with clients.
  • Contribute to business development of ERM's global mining service area. Support development of new opportunities, including preparation of proposals and cost estimates.


REQUIREMENTS:
  • Bachelors in engineering, geology, science, or related discipline.
  • 5+ years of relevant mining experience. This could include:
    • Mine closure planning, in particular the development of strategic closure goals, closure objectives, and associated criteria;
    • Industry experience working as an environmental coordinator or related position for a mining company to understand operational needs;
    • Experience developing, preparing and reviewing mine closure cost estimates, asset retirement obligations (AROs), and development of recommendations for clients.
    • Experience supporting the environmental approval and permitting process on owner's teams for capital projects (i.e., new mines or expansions).
  • Prior experience working as part of an integrated team of consultants and engineering companies.
  • Strong project management skills (e.g., development of work plans, budgets, schedules, and project controls).
  • Excellent writing, communication, strategic thinking, and "people" skills.
  • Experience with mining projects in BC and the North would be an asset.
  • Eligibility for professional registration (e.g., P.Eng, P.Geo, or P.Ag.) is an asset.
  • A complementary discipline to mining (i.e., water resources, ecology, etc.) is an asset.
  • Additional language skills (e.g., French and Spanish) are an asset.


For the Managing Consultant, Mine Closure Planning position, we anticipate the annual base pay of $88,810 - $100,860 CAD. An employee's pay position within this range will be based on several factors including, but not limited to, relevant education, qualifications, certifications, experience, skills, geographic location, performance, shift, travel requirements, sales or revenue-based metrics, and business or organizational needs. We also may have instances where compensation may be outside of the range, based on the factors noted above. This job is also eligible for an annual discretionary based performance bonus.

We offer a comprehensive package of benefits including paid time off, paid parental leave, medical, dental, vision, life, disability and AD&D insurance, 401(k) or RRSP/DPSP, and any other benefits to eligible employees as applicable.
