Establish clear expectations for crew members and maintain accountability for safety, productivity, attendance, equipment care, and overall job performance.
Lead crews respectfully and effectively, maintaining strong communication and a positive, performance-oriented working environment.
Conduct shift planning, crew assignments, toolbox meetings, and shift handovers to ensure continuity between operating periods.
Work closely with site leadership to coordinate maintenance, production priorities, staffing requirements, and changing field conditions.
Troubleshoot operational challenges in real time and make practical decisions to keep production moving safely and efficiently.
Support the continued development of operating procedures, training practices, and site standards as the organization grows.

Previous experience as a Mine Supervisor, Shift Supervisor, Mine Foreman, Shift Lead, Operations Supervisor, or comparable field leadership position is strongly preferred.
Direct experience in placer mining is considered a significant asset.
Experience operating, overseeing, or coordinating wash plant operations is strongly preferred.
Candidates from broader mining environments will be considered provided they possess strong operational knowledge and can transition quickly with minimal training.
Strong understanding of production-focused mining or earthmoving operations, including equipment utilization, material movement, crew coordination, and safe work practices.
Practical, field-oriented leadership style with the willingness and technical capability to work alongside operators when required.
Strong judgment and problem-solving ability in a fast-moving operating environment.
Comfortable working within a privately owned, entrepreneurial organization where leaders have significant autonomy and direct interaction with ownership.
