Refinery General Manager & Commissioning Leader

Our client is seeking a senior hydrometallurgical leader to support the commissioning and ramp-up of its hydrometallurgical refinery in Temiskaming Shores, Ontario, Canada. Funded by the U.S. and Canadian governments, the refinery will produce a battery-grade cobalt sulfate product for industrial and defence battery applications.

The successful candidate will lead commissioning and stabilize core process circuits, particularly solvent extraction (SX) and crystallization, while establishing the operating discipline and internal capability required for sustained, on-spec production.

In Year 2, a phase 2 expansion is contemplated to increase production from 5,120 tpa to 6,500 tpa of cobalt contained in sulfate to align with crystallizer nameplate capacity.

This role carries full accountability for operational readiness, ramp-up performance, and early-stage plant stability.
