OUR PEOPLE ARE WHAT MAKE US TICK

Our people are key to our success and every day they are supported and encouraged to reach their full potential. We want to be a different kind of resources company and have removed layers within our business, empowering people to make decisions effectively and quickly.

We encourage our people to look for smarter and better ways to do things. We invest in their continual development and learning, as their success is key to the success of South32. We listen to everyone and have fostered a workplace culture that encourages employees and contractors to speak up about issues or conduct that concerns them.

WE ARE COMMITTED

We ask our people to act and think responsibly and sustainably – and we wouldn’t ask anyone to something we aren’t prepared to do as a company. Our commitment to our people, our communities, our customers and our environment is the most important aspect of our success.

Our Purpose and Strategy

We want to make a difference to the world by developing natural resources in a safe and sustainable way, bringing long-term benefits to the communities we work with.

By investing in high-quality assets and maintaining financial discipline, we are unlocking value for our shareholders and global partners. We will constantly strive to improve our performance, through well-designed work and continuous learning. 

We're a global company, listed on three continents and with operations across five countries. 

Our leadership team reflects our international footprint, with directors based in Africa and Australia, and with decades of combined experience in resources, finance and corporate governance.
