The challenge ahead

Reporting to the Delivery Manager, you will support the initiation, development and execution of sub‑domain portfolio initiatives across the Pit to Customer value chain. This role is designed for a high‑performing, adaptive individual who thrives in complexity and is motivated by delivering meaningful, measurable outcomes.

You will work across the full initiative lifecycle, applying asset‑centric thinking and a strong focus on value delivery. By driving adoption, strengthening process design and uplifting governance maturity, you will help ensure consistent and structured delivery across a diverse digital portfolio. Collaboration and flexibility are central to this role, requiring close engagement with assets, technology partners and senior stakeholders to translate operational challenges into scalable digital opportunities.

A core focus of this role will be the Leaching process. You will act as the digital lead for Leaching, identifying and shaping initiatives, defining their business cases, determining the best way to deliver them,



and growing a dedicated portfolio of Leaching initiatives while connecting the different groups across the organisation working in this space.

Main responsabilities

- Drive Pit to Customer digital initiatives end‑to‑end, ensuring alignment with strategic objectives and digital process governance.
- Facilitate workshops and lead structured opportunity framing, data analysis and problem‑solving engagements to identify asset needs and challenges.
- Translate operational requirements into clear, value‑focused digital use cases and initiatives.
- Identify, evaluate and recommend technologies that enable effective digital solutions within operational environments.
- Collaborate closely with technology partners and asset stakeholders to support effective delivery and value realisation.
- Rapidly assess emerging digital solutions and vendor proposals against operational context to determine fit, feasibility and value potential.
- Provide PMO support to accelerate delivery, including business case development, valuation, technical coordination, stakeholder engagement and change management to support user adoption.
- Build and maintain a strong network across the organisation, coordinating with leaders and stakeholders to manage risks, align plans and support successful outcomes.
- Prepare clear reporting and presentations for senior and executive leadership audiences.




- Lead the digital agenda for the Leaching process (from stacking and irrigation through solution management to SX‑EW), acting as the go‑to digital partner for Leaching operations and technical teams.
- Identify and prioritise digital opportunities across the Leaching value chain, grounded in process understanding, operational data and asset needs (e.g. recovery, leach cycle times, irrigation and solution management, water and reagent consumption, cathode quality).
- Define robust business cases for Leaching initiatives, quantifying value, costs, risks and key assumptions to support investment decisions.
- Shape and structure initiatives from concept to delivery‑ready, including scope, success metrics, stakeholders, data and technology requirements, and roadmap.
- Determine the most effective delivery approach for each initiative (e.g. in‑house build, vendor solution, pilot or proof of value, scale‑up), considering technical maturity, commercial model, asset readiness and change management needs.
- Grow and sustain a prioritised pipeline of Leaching initiatives, ensuring the portfolio remains aligned with asset and strategic objectives.
- Connect and collaborate with the different groups working on Leaching across the organisation (asset operations, processing and technical teams, centres of excellence, technology and innovation teams, and external partners) to align efforts, avoid duplication and leverage synergies.
