Description

About BHP At BHP, we believe our purpose goes beyond mining: we work to improve lives and create a more sustainable future. We are a global resources company with operations in more than 90 locations worldwide. In Canada, our presence is growing with the development of one of the most significant potash projects in the world; Jansen.

About Potash and the Jansen Project Imagine being part of something truly world-class, something that’s shaping the future of sustainable agriculture and responsible resource development.

With a CAD$14 billion (US$10.5 billion) investment, it marks the biggest private investment in Saskatchewan’s history, and a bold step forward for BHP in Canada. But Jansen is more than a mine; it’s a long-term opportunity to build something meaningful. During construction, it will create around 5,500 jobs, and once in operation, 900 permanent roles. Whether you’re looking to grow your career, contribute to a sustainable future, or be part of a legacy project, Jansen could be the place where it all begins. Why BHP?
