Christine Keener has been appointed COO of mining company Barrick Gold’s North American region, with effect from February.

She has a diverse background, having worked in finance, strategy, a number of commercial roles and, more recently, in operations.

She was formerly VP for Europe and North America for Alcoa and, before that, worked as a certified public accountant for PwC.

Keener holds an MBA from Carnegie Mellon University and a BSc in Accounting from Grove City College.

Announcing the appointment, Barrick president and CE Mark Bristow said Keener had a 21-year record of improving results in each of her roles at Alcoa.

“She has a deep commitment to business outcomes and is highly focused on delivery. Ms Keener is able to find opportunities for improvement and then to implement them with great determination. She will be a very valuable addition to our executive team,” he added.
