I joined IAMGOLD’s Global Supply Chain in Sept. 2011 and now work as
Procurement Excellence Lead after being offered a few career growth
opportunities over the years. Each new role brought forth change, which I
embraced as opportunities to evolve, learn and strive for excellence while
empowering others along the way. It has been a great pleasure to be
working alongside colleagues who ignite my passion to learn and strive
towards excellence, and always give their personal best!”

I joined IAMGOLD in Sept. 2022 as Metallurgy Superintendent when an
opportunity came up to help start up the Côté Gold project. I really enjoy
working with a team of extremely motivated people who all have the same
goal. Côté has presented me with the opportunity to leave my mark and work
with cutting-edge processing equipment, including high-pressure grinding
rolls (HPGR), vertical tower mills and autonomous equipment. It really was
an opportunity I could not pass up!”

I joined Côté Gold in June 2022 as an Autonomous Hardware and Radio Tech.
I was looking for an opportunity to grow my career and Côté provided that
opportunity. I am impressed at how much IAMGOLD focuses on finding and
recruiting high-caliber individuals for every position. The technology
being deployed is exciting and fascinating and pushes everyone to learn
and adapt to new ways of thinking and operating. People are what makes
companies great, and Côté has a lot of great people!”

I joined Westwood in March 2020 as Chief Engineer, Strategic Projects, as
the pandemic was starting, which certainly offered us fascinating new
operational challenges. Aside from these challenges, it was the openness
of the leadership team combined with the very human way of managing teams,
and the use of technical mining advances that definitely won my heart!
IAMGOLD shows a real interest for the well-being of its employees, and
this has to be highlighted!”
Louis N.
Chief Mining Engineer, Westwood (Quebec, Canada)
We can say that my interest in the Westwood mine comes from family
history. When I was hired in 2013 as a Clerk, Parts in the warehouse team,
my father was already working at Westwood as a mechanic. I like the
dynamics that provide me with a good balance between a pleasant routine
and some nice daily challenges that keep me alert and motivated. Every
day, I learn something new and I love it!”

Clerk, Parts, Westwood (Quebec, Canada)
I am very proud to be the first forewoman at the operation mill of
Essakane. I was hired and trained in 2010 in partnership with the National
Agency for the promotion of employment in Dori, Burkina Faso and the
Vocational Centre of Val-d’Or in Québec. I am very engaged and dedicated,
and know every aspect of the mill’s operations. Essakane’s management team
gives opportunities to both women and men. We are a tight-knit team. We
work in a dynamic and cheerful environment while always maintaining safety
measures.“
Salamata K.
Forewoman, Mill Operations, Essakane (Burkina Faso)
I have a master's degree in Logistics Engineering and Supply Chain
Management. I have more than 20 years of experience in accounting and
supply chain, including more than 12 years at Essakane. I also worked for
IAMGOLD in Québec. My team and I assume the hard task of supplying
Essakane mine in a difficult global context due to the COVID-19 pandemic
and the geopolitical tensions in Burkina Faso. However, each day that
passes makes me even more passionate about my work.“
