AECOM is seeking a Senior Mineral Geologist/Economist to join our West Region mining team, providing technical leadership in the economic evaluation and strategic assessment of mining and mineral development projects across a wide range of commodities and development stages. This role is intended for a senior-level professional with deep expertise in mining geology and project economics who can lead the integration of geological models, resource and reserve data, and mine planning inputs into robust, decision-focused economic analyses. The successful candidate will be responsible for translating complex geological and technical information into clear, defensible insights that support investment decisions, project development strategies, and long-term portfolio value.
In this role, you will serve as a technical leader on multidisciplinary project teams, guiding geological and economic workstreams from early-stage project screening through scoping, prefeasibility, and feasibility-level studies, as well as advisory and due diligence engagements. You will provide senior geological judgment related to resource confidence, geological risk, grade continuity, and deposit characteristics, and assess their implications for mine design, production scheduling, and project economics. Working closely with geologists, mining engineers, processing specialists, and environmental professionals, you will help shape project strategies, mentor junior staff, and support clients with technically sound, commercially grounded recommendations that optimize project outcomes.
