ABOUT US

Endeavour Mining plc is one of the world’s senior gold producers and the largest in West Africa, with operating assets across Senegal, Cote d’Ivoire and Burkina Faso and a strong portfolio of advanced development projects and exploration assets, in the highly prospective Birimian Greenstone Belt across West Africa.

We operate in a number of diverse jurisdictions and recognise that our operations blend a wide range of nationalities, cultures and abilities.

JOB PURPOSE

The purpose of this role is to support the delivery of a first-class service to the business across the full range of governance and company secretarial requirements of a global FTSE 250 and Toronto Stock Exchange listed plc.
