Canadian gold producer operating two mines with focus on intermediate-scale production
Wesdome is a public gold mining company with 30+ years of Canadian operations, now scaling toward 200,000+ ounces annual production across two Ontario and Quebec mines. The hiring mix—skewed toward engineering (18 roles) and operations (14)—reflects active infrastructure buildout: SAP maintenance implementation, control panel design, and preventative maintenance systems dominate the project list, signaling operational maturity at the cost-optimization and reliability phase rather than pure exploration mode.

Wesdome Gold Mines operates two producing mines—Eagle River Underground and Mishi Open Pit in Wawa, Ontario—feeding a central mill, alongside the Kiena Complex (a fully permitted former mine with existing infrastructure in Val-d-Or, Quebec) and early-stage exploration at Moss Lake west of Thunder Bay. The company is publicly traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange under ticker WDO with approximately 138.9 million shares outstanding. Operations span Canada only, with a stated goal to build an intermediate producer yielding 200,000+ ounces annually. Active pain points include maintenance cost reduction, energy usage optimization, production target alignment, and workforce retention.
SAP ERP (including S/4HANA, PM, FI/CO, and Analytics Cloud) for enterprise systems; SCADA and HMI for operational control; ArcGIS and QGIS for geological mapping; AutoCAD for design; SQL for data management.
