• Evaluate mining project economics, including capex/opex profiles, production schedules, commodity price assumptions, and risk factors.
• Prepare investment memoranda, pitch books, valuation summaries, and board-level presentations.
• Monitor commodity markets, mining sector trends, M&A activity, and the competitive landscape.
• Support deal execution, including coordination with technical consultants, legal teams, and counterparties.
• Assess geopolitical, permitting, environmental, and ESG risks affecting mining investments.
• Structure and evaluate alternative and structured financing schemes for mining operations, including metal prepays, royalties, streaming agreements, offtake and marketing arrangements, and debt/equity hybrids, and assess their impact on project economics and counterparty risk.

• Demonstrated understanding of mineral resource classification codes (JORC, NI 43-101, SAMREC, or similar).
• Working knowledge of structured financing instruments used in the mining sector, including prepays, royalties, streams, and offtake agreements.
• Strong financial modelling and valuation skills.
• Ability to translate technical geological data into commercial and financial insight.
• Advanced proficiency in Excel; familiarity with mining technical software (e.g., resource and mine-planning tools) is an advantage.
• Strong analytical, quantitative, and problem-solving abilities.
• Excellent written and verbal communication, including report and presentation preparation.
• Ability to manage multiple workstreams under deadline pressure.
