About us

Trailblazing the path for women in mining

Mining organizations across Canada and all over the world want to hire talented, skilled women with professional qualifications who want to work in the industry. But finding them can be challenging.

The Artemisa Mining Challenge connects qualified women and organizations within the mining sector through an easy, efficient, and effective placement experience for all stakeholders. Our team supports companies in staying abreast of premium international talent pools to meet their hiring needs while helping candidates find meaningful employment and get the practical experience they need to advance their careers.

Our goals

Advancing women in mining

Currently 16% of women participate in the Canadian mining sector. Given the need for improved performance through a diverse and inclusive workforce, Canadian mining companies are looking to acquire new female talent, especially in engineering roles.

Help mining companies meet ESG targets

More and more mining companies have committed targets to increase female participation and especially in technical roles. To meet these targets, mining companies are looking for diverse talent pools, outside of Canada.

Remove barriers for newly graduated female engineers

Females experience entrenched barriers, making it difficult to start careers, especially for newly graduated female mining engineers. Artemisa Mining Challenge enables newly graduated Latin American female mining engineers to begin first stage careers with Canadian mining companies.

Clients

The Artemisa Mining Challenge identifies, qualifies, and connects internationally-based, under-represented female mining engineers with progressive mining companies for hire consideration.

Candidates

Women who are interested in establishing careers in mining benefit from mentors and contacts who can help them navigate the territory. The Artemisa Mining Challenge can be that resource for the right candidates.
