Students and graduates

We offer a range of exciting, paid, entry-level work opportunities to students and recent graduates.

We believe strongly in supporting the next generation of engineers, geologists, traders, as well as experts in sustainability, logistics and finance. In fact, across our Canadian operations, we hired more than 175 students in the summer of 2024 to complement our business and help us develop the next generation of talent to tackle the challenges that face our industry.

Each year, the CCR team in the Province of Quebec hires students and interns. Moreover, scholarships are awarded through the site’s participation with École de Technologie Supérieure each year. At CCR, areas of study for students and interns revolve around chemical engineering, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, administration (accounting and HR), analytical chemistry and laboratory techniques, policing and fire safety.

With a focus on numerous areas of study including engineering, chemistry, electronics, computer science, health and safety, and accounting, jobs at CEZinc enable students to gain rewarding professional experience while simultaneously gaining insight into future career possibilities.

Given many of these students are the sons and daughters of our colleagues, in the summer of 2024, CEZinc launched a SafeWork campaign entitled “The safety of our youth: A family affair.” The campaign featured parents of students working at the site emphasizing the importance of workplace safety. The underlying goal of the campaign was to reinforce the need to look after our colleagues as if they were family.

The Horne Smelter offers university internships in the fields of chemistry, biotechnology, as well as mechanical, electrical, civil, industrial, chemical and environmental engineering. The site also offers college-level technical internships in instrumentation and industrial maintenance.

Providing an excellent work-study opportunity for participants, these programs are highly rewarding, and sometimes lead to full-time positions of employment at the site.

Aside from its yearly scholarship program, Sudbury INO also offers summer employment to local university and college students. In the summer of 2024, 40 students across various disciplines were welcomed into the operation. Some were scholarship recipients, some were sons and daughters of Sudbury INO employees, and others were qualifying candidates involved in applicable areas of study.

We believe in the dedication and skills of the next generation of mining employees. If you are bright, curious, confident and eager to grow with us, you may be the person we are looking for.
