Senior Geologist | Brownfields Exploration | Gold

I’m working with an established international gold producer with multiple producing operations across North and South America, alongside a strong pipeline of development and exploration assets.

They’re looking to appoint a Senior Geologist to join their Resource Development team and play a key role in identifying and advancing brownfield exploration opportunities across the portfolio.

The role is based at the company's Denver headquarters, with approximately 25% travel to operating and exploration assets.

This is a technically focused position with exposure to a broad range of exploration and resource development activities, including:
  • Generating and evaluating brownfield targets across mine, near-mine and regional environments
  • Integrating geological, geochemical, geophysical and drilling datasets to develop exploration hypotheses
  • Developing and refining geological interpretations and 3D models
  • Leading litho-structural mapping and field investigations
  • Supporting and providing technical oversight of drill programs
  • Reviewing and prioritising exploration targets and presenting recommendations to senior stakeholders
  • Maintaining and improving geological datasets and GIS platforms across the portfolio
  • Applying new exploration techniques, technologies and datasets to improve targeting
  • Working closely with site geology, resource geology, mine geology and technical services teams
  • Providing technical guidance and mentorship to junior geologists and technicians
What they’re looking for:
  • Strong experience in litho-structural mapping
  • Experience in brownfield exploration and target generation, ideally within precious metals environments
  • Experience working in orogenic, epithermal and/or Carlin gold systems
  • Strong GIS capability, with ArcGIS Pro experience an advantage
  • Proficiency with Leapfrog Geo or equivalent 3D modelling software
  • Strong geological interpretation and exploration targeting capability

    Excellent communication skills and the ability to present technical concepts to both technical and non-technical stakeholders
  • A collaborative approach and strong commitment to HSEC standards
  • Willingness to travel approximately 25% across the company's operating and exploration assets throughout North and South America

This is an exciting opportunity to take on a portfolio-wide technical role, working across exploration targets and producing operations while contributing directly to resource discovery and growth.
