He began his career as a metallurgist, responsible for planning and laboratory procedural development and analysis.

During this time, he was responsible for control system design and upgrade, trouble-shooting existing control systems, and management of site-wide projects. Most recently, Bennetts was a product manager for Weir Minerals. Bennetts is a 1996 graduate of the University of Montana where he received his bachelor of science in metallurgical engineering.
