About the role

Phoenix Tailings is seeking a Director of Pilot Plant Engineering in Burlington to lead pilot-scale isolation and metallization programs. You will bridge R&D and Manufacturing, setting priorities, coordinating engineering work, and ensuring pilot lessons feed production requirements. You will build and lead a high-performing team, develop SOPs, manage equipment, and drive strategies for scalable, reliable pilot operations in a fast-moving environment.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
