Position Overview

We are seeking an experienced Lab Manager with a strong background in electrochemistry and chemical engineering to lead laboratory operations within Excir’s R&D and process development environment. This role serves as the critical operational link between executive leadership and the development team, ensuring that new metallurgical and chemical processes originating from R&D are translated into structured, safe, and industrially relevant laboratory execution.

The laboratory works across the full spectrum of hydrometallurgical processes for both base metals and precious metals, sourced from primary ores and secondary materials (including recycled and electronic waste streams). The Lab Manager will oversee day-to-day activities covering leaching, solution purification, precipitation, electrowinning, electrorefining, and related unit operations. This is a hands-on leadership role essential to advancing processes from concept through development, pilot testing, and scale-up.

Key Responsibilities

Act as the primary operational interface between executive leadership and the laboratory development team
Lead, supervise, and mentor laboratory staff working on hydrometallurgical and electrochemical process development
Translate R&D concepts into structured experimental plans covering leaching, separation, and metal recovery workflows
Oversee day-to-day laboratory operations, including scheduling, prioritization, and resource allocation
Design, execute, and review hydrometallurgical experiments, including leaching, solvent extraction, precipitation, and purification steps
Design, execute, and review electrochemical operations such as electrowinning and electrorefining where applicable
Ensure safe handling, storage, and use of chemicals in compliance with regulatory and internal standards
Review, validate, and approve experimental protocols, data quality, and technical results
Support scale-up from laboratory processes to pilot and demonstration-scale systems
Maintain laboratory equipment, analytical tools, and electrochemical systems; coordinate maintenance and external services
Collaborate closely with chemical engineers, metallurgists, and operations teams to integrate laboratory outcomes into process development
Ensure rigorous documentation, reporting, and traceability of experimental work
Support collaboration with external partners, research institutions, and industrial stakeholders in the mining, metals, and recycling sectors

Qualifications

Required Qualifications

Bachelor’s degree in Chemical Engineering, Metallurgical Engineering, Electrochemistry, or a related field (Master’s degree preferred)
Minimum of 8 years of relevant industry experience in hydrometallurgy, electrochemistry, or chemical process development
Strong foundation in hydrometallurgical principles, solution chemistry, and mass transfer
Hands-on experience with metal extraction processes for base and/or precious metals
Working knowledge of electrowinning, electrorefining, or related electrochemical recovery methods
Demonstrated experience managing laboratory staff and experimental programs
Solid understanding of laboratory safety, chemical regulations, and industry best practices
Ability to manage multiple technical projects in a fast-paced development environment

Preferred Qualifications

Industry experience in base metal or precious metal processing, mining, refining, or recycling
Hands-on experience supporting scale-up from laboratory processes to pilot or industrial operations
Demonstrated familiarity with electrowinning, electrorefining, and associated hydrometallurgical flowsheets
Experience working in multidisciplinary R&D and process development teams
Proven track record interfacing effectively between technical teams and senior or executive management

Key Skills & Attributes

Strong leadership presence with the ability to drive execution and accountability
Clear, structured communication across technical and executive audiences
Hands-on, practical approach to hydrometallurgical and electrochemical problem-solving
Ability to translate strategic R&D direction into executable laboratory programs
