The role requires approximately 40% travel to GMIN's subsidiaries in South America.

Lead development and periodic refresh of deposit-scale geological interpretations and conceptual models
Define exploration and infill drilling strategies that optimize value creation (resource conversion, confidence uplift, discovery), in alignment with technical services and mine planning requirements.
Translate technical conclusions into clear recommendations for senior management, investors, and partners
Implement and maintain exploration technical systems and protocols (sampling, QA/QC, density, geotechnical/hydrogeological interfaces) consistent with industry best practices and applicable reporting codes.
Own the resource modelling and mineral resource estimation governance framework across projects/sites (standards, templates, peer review, documentation, and version control).
Translate technical conclusions into clear recommendations for senior management, investors, and partners; contribute to high-quality technical presentations and written materials.
Integrate geological, geo-metallurgical, density, structural, and production data to maintain fit-for-purpose models that support mine planning and technical studies.
Drive reconciliation and model performance reviews (short- and long-term); identify root causes and implement improvements to modelling, sampling, and QA/QC workflows.
Lead modelling and mineral resource workstreams for technical due diligence and corporate transactions; prepare defensible deliverables and respond to third-party technical queries.

Proven ability to integrate multi-disciplinary datasets, including geology, structure, geo-metallurgy, geotechnical, hydrogeology, and mining, across study phases through to operations.
Strong leadership, coaching, and stakeholder management experience, with the ability to communicate effectively with both technical and non-technical audiences.
Strong understanding of QA/QC programs, sampling theory, drilling practices, density, and data integrity requirements that support robust resource estimates.
Advanced proficiency with Leapfrog (Geo/Edge), geostatistical tools such as Supervisor (or equivalent), GIS
experience with scripting languages such as Python or R is an asset.
Highly analytical with a continuous improvement mindset, including the ability to identify issues through reconciliation, audits, and data-driven reviews.

MSc and/or relevant postgraduate specialization preferred.
10 to 15 years of progressive experience in resource geology, 3D geological modelling, and mineral resource estimation, with gold experience strongly preferred.
Site experience is an asset.
BSc in Geology, Geological Engineering, Mining Engineering, or a related field
