Andrew is a highly-experienced mining engineer with over 30 years mining experience covering a wide range of operational, technical, project management and business improvement roles. Andrew’s previous role was General Manager – Strategic Mine Planning in Rio Tinto Coal Australia and was accountable for all strategic and long range planning. Andrew initiated a complete operating model transformation which halved the costs and significantly increased output of the team. The team discovered in the region of $2 billion unrealised shareholder value and in the process, increased the reserve base by 40%.
It was on this project that Andrew and Patricia first worked together and delivered this outstanding result. Since leaving Rio, Andrew has teamed up with Patricia and brings the mining domain knowledge, facilitation and business improvement skills to the partnership.
