- Act as the single point of accountability for study execution, scope control, and integration across disciplines.
- Establish study strategies, manage critical path schedules, and ensure timely delivery of decision-ready outputs.
- Lead regular reviews of study progress, budgets, resources, and risks, addressing issues proactively.
- Provide senior oversight of process engineering and metallurgical inputs,
ensuring assumptions are realistic, consistent, and fit for study maturity.
- Integrate process design with mining, infrastructure, tailings, water, environmental, and permitting inputs.
- Coordinate internal subject matter experts and external specialists or technology providers, as required.
- Ensure that study outcomes are technically robust and aligned with industry best practices.
- Lead the integration of technical outputs into CAPEX, OPEX, and economic models.
- Support evaluation of alternative development options and trade-offs to maximize project value.
- Ensure that studies clearly articulate value drivers, risks, and sensitivities to support informed investment decisions.
- Maintain a strong client focus, understanding client objectives and ensuring study outcomes meet expectations.
- Lead technical workshops, option selection sessions, and study reviews with clients and internal leadership.
- Support business development activities in a seller–doer capacity, including proposal preparation and client engagement.
- Ensure that study risks, assumptions, and uncertainties are clearly identified and communicated.
- Comply with internal quality, health, safety, and environmental management systems.
- Support internal and external reviews, audits, and assurance processes.
