OceanaGold taps new boss
PERTH (miningweekly.com) – Dual-listed gold miner OceanaGold has appointed Gerard Bond as president and CEO, effective from April 4.
Bond will also serve as a member of the board of directors.
“Following an extensive executive search, we are pleased to have attracted such an accomplished and recognised executive to lead OceanaGold forward. Bond has demonstrated strong leadership during his career, brings a wealth of commercial and industry experience and has a proven track record of driving performance and delivering on business potential,” said OceanaGold chairperson Paul Benson.
“This appointment marks an exciting new chapter for OceanaGold and the board is looking forward to working with him to maximise the value of the company.”
Bond has held numerous senior executive roles across Europe and Australia, and most recently, was the finance director and CFO at Newcrest Mining from January 2012 to January 2022. Prior to joining Newcrest, Bond was with BHP for over 14 years where he held various senior executive roles in mergers and acquisitions, treasury, as deputy CFO of the aluminium business, CFO and then acting president of the nickel business, and finally as BHP’s head of group human resources. Prior to joining BHP, Bond worked in corporate finance for Coopers & Lybrand.
“I am honoured and delighted to join OceanaGold as president and CEO. The company has an exciting portfolio of assets and growth opportunities. I look forward to working closely with the board, the leadership team and the workforce to safely and responsibly drive improved operating and financial performance, realise the full potential of the company’s growth opportunities and to maximise value and returns to shareholders,” said Bond.
Scott Sullivan will continue as acting president and CEO until Bond’s start on April 4, following which he will revert to his role as COO and support the leadership transition.
