About the team
Global experts in their field
The MSM team partners with a carefully selected group of top tier global mining companies, helping them attract and retain the very best talent in the world.
They cover all mine site functions but are best known for recruiting General Managers and Managers of: Finance, Supply Chain, HR, Operations, Engineering, Metallurgy and Geology.
What makes us different
Today’s remote mine site has many options when it comes to selecting a recruitment partner. This can be challenging when many of those partners are working with the same active networks via job boards and stagnant talent pools. While monitoring those same talent pools for the growth of our existing network, our MSM team is able to headhunt globally and reach into any continent to source the strongest talent solution available and we do so at pace. This unique team combine the high end tone, methodology and referencing of executive search, with the speed and passion of the recruitment world.
