Mining minerals producer serving glass, ceramics, foundry, and construction markets
Covia extracts and processes industrial minerals (silica sand, feldspar, kaolin, nepheline syenite) for glass, ceramics, foundry, and construction end-markets. The tech stack reflects a capital-intensive, process-heavy operation: IFS ERP, LabWare LIMS, Wonderware/Ignition for plant automation, and SQL Server + Power BI for operations reporting. Hiring is operations-centric (32 ops roles) with mid-level dominance, pointing to facility expansion and process optimization work — validated by active projects in predictive maintenance, cost reduction, and debottlenecking.
