We are a global resources company with operations in more than 90 locations worldwide.

Come and be part of this success About Potash and the Jansen Project Imagine being part of something truly world‑class, something that is shaping the future of sustainable agriculture and responsible resource development.

At approximately US$15.3 billion investment, it marks the biggest private investment in Saskatchewan's history, and a bold step forward for BHP in Canada. Beyond its scale, Jansen will create lasting value for people and communities. The project is expected to support approximately 5,500 jobs during construction and around 900 permanent roles once production begins. Whether you’re looking to grow your career, make a meaningful impact, or be part of a legacy project, Jansen could be the place where it all begins.
