Restore and maintain a legacy mine site while working in one of Yukon’s most important environmental projects.

The Faro Mine Complex, located near the town of Faro in south-central Yukon, is one of the largest and most complex mine remediation projects in Canadian history. Once the world’s largest open-pit lead-zinc mine, the site ceased operations in 1998 and has since become the focus of a long-term environmental cleanup and stabilization initiative. The remediation project is managed by Parsons Inc. on behalf of the Government of Canada, with oversight and input from the Kaska Nations, the Government of Yukon, and local stakeholders. This multi-decade initiative is focused on protecting human health, restoring the environment, and maximizing economic opportunities for Yukon communities. The Faro Mine Remediation Project (FMRP) offers a wide range of employment opportunities, including roles in environmental monitoring, site maintenance, heavy equipment operation, water treatment, and construction.
