The Opportunity

Due to the expanding operations, the Process and Mine Infrastructure Design Group at is currently recruiting for a Junior Process Engineer to join our growing team of designers, scientists and engineers in our Sudbury and Mississauga, Ontario locations.

The Process and Mine Infrastructure Design group provides specialized services in the field of paste backfill and surface dewatered tailings disposal, as well as other mine backfill technologies such as hydraulic, rock and aggregate fills. The paste disposal field is an ever emerging specialist niche, and WSP is currently the world leader in the provision of these types of services to premier mining and waste mineral disposal clients. The use of paste technology has also expanded into non-traditional areas, such as mine remediation, environmental remediation and the treatment of coal ash. WSP is at the forefront of advancing these services areas.

Our team has expanded capabilities in underground mine infrastructure design, for example, ore handling systems, mine dewatering, shaft design and fuel and lube facilities. As a result, our consultants are in demand throughout the world and WSP can offer a very interesting and stimulating work environment for a junior engineer who will be surrounded by leaders in the field
