Role Overview

We are seeking a

Drilling Consumables Product & Field Support Specialist

to act as a key technical bridge between our product development, operations, and customers. This dual-purpose role combines

field-based customer engagement and sales support

with

internal product lifecycle and inventory management

for top hammer, diamond tooling, and exploration drilling consumables.

You’ll split your time between visiting customer sites to support field trials, drive product performance, and provide training — and collaborating with internal stakeholders on inventory optimization, cost initiatives, technical marketing, and feedback loops for product improvement. This role is ideal for a technically savvy and commercially minded professional who thrives in both field and office settings.

- Serve as the regional product expert for diamond products and exploration tooling; advise customers and sales teams on product use, performance optimization, and application best practices.

- Plan and execute structured field trials of new consumables — including test planning, performance analysis, and feedback reporting.

- Actively support the Canadian Sales Management team in customer acquisition, relationship management, and strategic growth initiatives.

- Deliver technical presentations, training, and on-site product demonstrations to drillers, customers, and internal teams.

- Collect and analyze field feedback for use in product improvements, warranty claims, and market positioning.

Product Management & Operations Support

- Support the global product management team with lifecycle planning, SKU rationalization, and cost-reduction initiatives.

- Manage high-value inventory tracking, reorder point (ROP) updates, and supply planning for large contracts.

- Collaborate with engineering, sourcing, and manufacturing to support value engineering and ensure product data integrity.

- Create and maintain technical marketing content including product specs, training materials, case studies, and value calculators.

- Evaluate competitor offerings and market trends to identify differentiation opportunities and feed strategy development.

Minimum Qualifications

- Authorized to work in Canada; valid driver’s license.

- Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical, Mining, Industrial, or Materials Engineering.

- 5+ years of relevant experience in mining, drilling, construction, or heavy industrial sectors.

- Solid understanding of consumables subject to wear (e.g., bits, tooling, diamond products) and the mechanics of drilling systems.

- Strong Microsoft Office proficiency (Excel, PowerPoint) and technical reporting skills.

- Proven ability to train and communicate technical concepts across all levels — from drill operators to executives.

- Detail-oriented and analytical mindset with experience in product testing, inventory control, and technical writing.

- Willingness and ability to travel frequently within Canada and occasionally internationally.

Preferred Qualifications

- Prior experience with core or top hammer drilling operations.

- Familiarity with ERP systems (e.g., Oracle) and product costing practices.

- Project management experience in a cross-functional environment.

- Knowledge of inventory health metrics and SKU-level planning.
