Technical Sales – Rock Reinforcement & Ground Support
Underground Mining | Sudbury, Ontario
Are you experienced in rock reinforcement, ground support or underground mine development and interested in taking the next step in your career?
GRTS is working with an established international mining technology company to recruit a Technical Sales professional for its growing Rock Reinforcement business in Canada.
This is an opportunity to join an established operation with a strong existing customer base across Canadian underground mining. You’ll work directly with mine sites, combining technical knowledge of ground support with customer development and commercial responsibility.
We are open to speaking with candidates from both mining suppliers and underground operations. You do not necessarily need to come from a traditional sales background.
The Role
- Work directly with underground mining customers on rock reinforcement and ground support applications
- Support customers with the selection, testing and implementation of ground support solutions
- Manage and develop relationships with an established portfolio of mining customers
- Identify and develop new business opportunities across the underground mining market
- Provide technical support around products including rock bolts, dynamic support, resin/rebar bolts and associated ground support systems
- Work closely with mine operations, ground control, technical services and other stakeholders
- Support product trials, testing and new applications at customer sites
- Develop long-term relationships within the Canadian underground mining community
Who We're Looking For
We are particularly interested in people with hands-on or technical experience in areas such as:
- Rock reinforcement / rock bolting
- Ground support / ground control
- Dynamic ground support
- Cable bolting
- Resin or rebar bolting
- Mechanised bolting
- Underground development
- Rock mechanics / geotechnical engineering
Your background could be with a ground support manufacturer or mining supplier, or you may currently work for an underground mine, mining contractor or technical consultancy.
Relevant backgrounds could include Technical Sales, Ground Support Specialist, Ground Control, Rock Mechanics, Geotechnical, Bolting Trainer, Development Supervisor, Mine Captain, Technical Services or similar positions.
Previous sales experience is advantageous but not essential. Technical credibility, knowledge of underground mining and the ability to build strong relationships with customers are the priorities.
Why Consider It?
- Join an established and successful Rock Reinforcement business rather than building from zero
- Work with specialist and differentiated ground support technologies
- Existing customer relationships and accounts to develop
- Opportunity to combine your underground technical experience with a commercial career
- Significant autonomy and scope to develop your own customer relationships
- Work across some of Canada's leading underground mining operations
- Long-term career opportunities within an international mining technology business
If you have experience with ground support, rock reinforcement or underground bolting and would be interested in discussing the opportunity confidentially, apply or contact Ben Robinson at GRTS for further information.
