Freelance consultant / SME (Underground Geotechnical and Ground Control Specialist) - Metals & Mining
About dss+
At dss+, you don’t just deliver projects - you help save lives, improve performance, and build a more sustainable future.
We are a purpose-led global consultancy partnering with organisations in high-risk and asset-intensive industries to solve complex operational challenges across safety, operational excellence, and sustainability.
With a heritage rooted in DuPont’s industrial operations, we combine deep expertise, practical problem-solving, and digital innovation to deliver measurable and lasting impact for our clients.
Why This Role
As a freelance Subject Matter Expert (SME), you will bring deep expertise in underground geotechnical engineering and Ground Control to support a major mining expansion project.
Working alongside dss+ and client stakeholders, you will review operational procedures, identify operational and safety risks, challenge existing practices where appropriate, and provide practical recommendations aligned with industry leading practices.
This is a project-based advisory role focused on technical review, risk identification, and procedure improvement rather than full-time consulting delivery.
Why This Industry
As underground mining operations become more complex and technically demanding, effective Ground Control is critical to protecting people, infrastructure, and operational continuity.
