Job Summary

The Pipeline Superintendent holds full strategic and operational accountability for the design, construction, management, and continuous operation of all mine site fluid infrastructure. This includes high-pressure tailings slurry disposal lines, comprehensive pit or underground dewatering networks, process water distribution loops, and fresh water supply lines. This leadership role directs internal pipeline crews and specialized contractors, manages multi-million dollar asset budgets, and ensures absolute environmental containment and regulatory compliance across kilometers of linear site infrastructure.

Key Responsibilities

- Strategic Oversight & Execution: Lead the long-term planning, installation sequence,



and relocation strategies for all site pipeline corridors, ensuring they lock cleanly into the overarching multi-year mine plan.
- Contractor & Crew Leadership: Direct, mentor, and evaluate pipeline coordinators, supervisors, internal pipe-fusion crews, and heavy civil contractors executing major infrastructure expansions.
- Asset Integrity & Risk Management: Own the preventative maintenance, pipeline rotation (for abrasive slurry wear), wall-thickness monitoring, and asset life-cycle programs to prevent catastrophic line failures or environmental spills.
- Regulatory & Environmental Ownership: Enforce a strict zero-harm environment; serve as the primary technical authority ensuring containment berms, leak detection systems, and catch basins comply with environmental permits and provincial mining regulations.
- Budgetary Control: Formulate and manage the annual operational (OPEX) and capital (CAPEX) budgets for pipeline infrastructure, pump stations, and fluid management systems.
- Emergency Response Planning: Establish, test, and maintain robust emergency response protocols for pipeline ruptures, extreme weather water surges, and sudden dewatering failures.
