About the Opportunity

Based in Toronto, and reporting to the Director, Supply Chain and Procurement, the Supply Chain Business Partner (SCBP) acts as a key strategic sourcing and commercial advisor to our mining operations in Northwestern Ontario and Northeastern Québec.

This position is ideal for a strategic thinker who is comfortable working closely with mine sites, challenging cost drivers, and shaping long term procurement decisions in a multi-site mining environment.
