Hughes Collective is pleased to present an exciting opportunity on behalf of our client.

Position Title: Training Specialist

Location:Saskatoon, SK

Reporting to: Training Lead

Schedule: Monday to Friday, In-Office

Our Client

Denison Mines is redefining what uranium mining can be. Their projects fuel the world’s demand for clean energy while proving that resource development can be innovative, responsible, and deeply connected to community.

Denison will be the first in Canada to adopt ISR mining for uranium; demonstrating that mining can be cleaner, lower-impact, and more sustainable. They continue to pioneer new technologies, minimize environmental impact and build Indigenous partnerships regarded among the strongest in the industry.

What sets Denison apart is its culture: human, hands-on, hard-working, and high-performing. Leaders know their people, check in often, and roll up their sleeves alongside the team. Employees describe the workplace as welcoming and energetic, with a shared pride in doing things better.

Above all, Denison’s people know their work matters. They are driving climate solutions, advancing projects with integrity, and proving that mining can deliver not just energy; but a better future.

This is your chance to be part of building something new and at the forefront of Canada’s uranium industry; are you ready to lead?

The Opportunity

Denison is building something rare in Canadian mining: not just a project, but a completely new operational model for uranium mining in Canada. As the company advances the Wheeler River Project, they are creating training systems and operational readiness programs from the ground up.

As Denison’s Training Specialist, you will play a key role in developing and implementing site-specific training programs that support operational excellence, workforce readiness, and safety performance. This is not a role focused solely on delivering pre-built programs. You will work directly with site teams, operating manuals and subject matter experts to gather information, identify training needs, and help create entirely new training systems designed specifically for the Wheeler River operation.

This opportunity is ideal for someone with a strong operational background who thrives in collaborative environments, enjoys building systems from the ground up, and wants to contribute to one of the most innovative uranium projects in Canada.

Key Responsibilities

As the Training Specialist you will work collaboratively and are responsible for:

1. Training Program Development & Delivery

• Develop, coordinate, deliver, and continuously improve site-specific training programs utilizing a Systematic Approach to Training (SAT).
• Build new operational training programs from the ground up in collaboration with supervisors, and site stakeholders.
• Facilitate in-person and virtual training sessions, including onboarding, site orientation, compliance training, technical skills development, and competency-based field training.
• Assist in the development and revision of training materials, work instructions, procedures, presentations, and competency checklists.

2. Operational Collaboration & Workforce Readiness

• Work closely with subject matter experts to identify training gaps and operational learning requirements.
• Conduct needs analyses and gather site-specific operational information to support effective training development.
• Support workforce readiness initiatives as Wheeler River advances toward future operational activities.
• Participate in field observations and ongoing training effectiveness reviews.

3. Compliance, Systems & Continuous Improvement

• Maintain accurate training records, matrices, dashboards, and documentation using learning management systems and tracking tools.
• Ensure training programs align with provincial and federal regulations, company standards, and site-specific operational requirements.
• Participate in audits, reviews, and incident investigations to identify training improvements and corrective actions.
• Support continuous improvement initiatives that strengthen training quality, consistency, and operational performance.

4. Team Support & Leadership

• Support the Training Lead in coordinating training schedules, logistics, and external training providers.
• Act as a peer mentor and resource for other trainers and operational personnel when required.
• Foster a culture of safety, accountability, collaboration, and continuous learning.
• Perform other duties as assigned.

Qualifications

To be successful in this role, you will bring:

The Essentials (Hard Skills):

• Minimum 5 years of training, operational, supervisory, or industrial site experience.
• Strong operational background within mining, industrial, processing, or heavy industrial environments.
• Uranium industry experience is strongly preferred.
• Diploma or degree in Occupational Health & Safety, Adult Education, Training & Development, Operations, or a related field is considered an asset.
• Strong understanding of adult learning principles and the Systematic Approach to Training (SAT).
• Experience developing and delivering operational or technical training programs.
• Proficiency with Microsoft Office Suite and Learning Management Systems (LMS).
• Eligibility to work in Canada.

The Intangibles (Soft Skills):

• Strong communication and presentation skills with the ability to engage employees across operational and technical teams.
• Self-motivated, organized, and adaptable in fast-paced environments.
• Collaborative and relationship-focused with the ability to gather information and build trust with site personnel.
• Hands-on problem solver who enjoys building new systems and processes.
• Passion for continuous learning, operational excellence, and workforce development.
