Newmont signs two-year partnership with AusIMM
AusIMM, the peak body for professionals working in resources, and Australia’s leading gold miner Newmont have signed a two-year partnership to build professional capability, empower the next generation of talent and help create a more diverse and inclusive mining industry.
As a leading provider of professional development (PD) for the resources sector, AusIMM will help upskill Newmont’s workforce through its superior PD program including technical conferences, online courses, featured events and industry mentoring.
With a shared commitment to building a more inclusive sector, the two organisations will also collaborate on AusIMM’s International Women’s Day (IWD) Event Series. This annual Event Series brings together the mining community to celebrate women and address diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) challenges in mining. As an IWD Signature Partner, Newmont will showcase an outstanding female employee as a 2025 Series Ambassador, as she shares her own story and helps to drive positive change together.
Newmont’s emerging workforce will have the opportunity to participate in AusIMM’s mentoring program, gaining career guidance from experienced AusIMM members and respected industry leaders to accelerate their learning and development and allow them to reach their full potential.
“AusIMM is delighted to partner with Newmont as part of our shared commitment to support a highly skilled, diverse resources workforce,” AusIMM CEO Stephen Durkin said. “This partnership positions AusIMM as a trusted leader in sharing knowledge and raising professional standards across the global sector.”
Newmont Chief Safety and Sustainability Officer and Executive Australia Suzy Retallack said the company was excited about developing the next generation of skilled mining professionals through the AusIMM partnership.
“Newmont needs more talented, creative and innovative people to build its Tier 1 gold-copper assets in Australia in coming decades and working with AusIMM will help us supercharge our future,” Suzy said.
