I am an experienced senior executive with four decades of diverse international experience in corporate leadership and the development and delivery of major capital projects and programs, including membership and participation on Investment Review Committees, mega-Project Steering Committees, and similar governance bodies.
My experience includes broad exposure to a global portfolio footprint and natural resource commodity segments – gold, silver, iron ore, nickel, copper, coal, uranium, diamonds, lithium, rare earths, cobalt, aluminium, borates, frac sand, and petroleum. I have held senior leadership roles in Owner, Construction Management, General Contractor, Subcontractor, and EPCM organizations — every position around the project and construction delivery table! This has provided critical experience in all phases of major capital project delivery and investment governance.
During my five years with BHP, I led the BHP Project Centre of Excellence and the BHP Project Management Leadership Team and was a member of the BHP Group Investment Review Committee. As Project Centre of Excellence Officer and Chair of the Projects Leadership Team, we drove numerous improvements to collectively create effective outcomes in capital-efficient investment delivery. I led BHP’s Technical Division activities related to the Petroleum division demerger to Woodside Energy. I was also member of numerous division Leadership Teams and special initiative Steering Committees.
