Full job description

Company Overview

Westhaven Gold Corp. is a Canadian gold and silver exploration and development company advancing high-grade epithermal mineralization in the Spences Bridge Gold Belt of southern British Columbia. Westhaven controls more than 60,000 hectares of mineral claims across four properties along the belt.

Our flagship Shovelnose Gold Project is emerging as a potential low-cost, high-margin underground gold opportunity. In February of this year, Westhaven closed a strategic earn-in agreement with Dundee Corporation, committing Dundee to fund up to C$85 million to advance the Shovelnose project. This commitment includes funding a 50,000-metre drill program in 2026, which is currently underway, as well as various engineering and baseline data collection programs in support of an ongoing pre-feasibility study of the project.

We're building the team to match the ambition of these work programs and are looking for motivated, hard-working and team-oriented people who want to grow their careers and help shape the next phase of growth at Westhaven and the Shovelnose project.

The ideal candidate will have experience in mining, construction, or industrial environments and possess strong communication and leadership skills. This position requires the ability to work effectively in the field and in the office, collaborating closely with operations, contractors, consultants, and site management teams.

Westhaven Gold Corporation is seeking a motivated and safety-focused Health and Safety Officer (HSO) to support ongoing exploration activities. The HSO will play a critical role in promoting a strong health and safety culture, ensuring compliance with provincial regulations and supporting safe work practices and will be responsible for promoting and maintaining a safe and healthy work environment by ensuring compliance with occupational health and safety legislation, company policies, and industry best practices.

Valid Class 5 driver’s license.

Preferred

Minimum 2-5 years of experience in occupational health and safety within industrial, mining, or construction environments.
