Project Control Manager

A U.S. focused gold developer is seeking a Project Controls Manager to support a large-scale open pit oxide gold project advancing through feasibility, permitting, detailed engineering, construction readiness, and toward future mining operations.

This is a senior owner's team position requiring a highly organised project controls professional capable of building the systems, processes, reporting frameworks, and governance required to successfully deliver a major mining project from development into execution.

The successful individual will play a key role in developing and managing project controls, scheduling, cost control, forecasting, reporting, document control, change management, and risk management systems as the project progresses toward construction.

• Develop and implement project controls systems covering cost control, scheduling, forecasting, reporting, change management, risk tracking, and document control
• Maintain and manage the integrated project schedule across engineering, permitting, procurement, construction readiness, commissioning, and operational planning activities
• Track project costs, commitments, forecasts, accruals, contingencies, and variances against approved budgets
• Develop project reporting dashboards and management reports covering schedule, cost, progress, risk, procurement, and key project decisions
• Establish and maintain document control systems, registers, workflows, revision control processes, and information management standards

• Ability to build practical, scalable project controls systems within a lean project development environment
• Strong analytical, communication, and stakeholder management skills
• Experience supporting feasibility studies, detailed engineering, construction readiness, commissioning, or project execution activities highly regarded
• Mining project experience, particularly within North American operations, would be advantageous
