PERTH (miningweekly.com) – Mining major Rio Tinto has appointed Simon Trott as its chief commercial officer (CCO), reinforcing the miner’s focus on driving value across the business.

Trott, who is currently the salt, uranium and borates MD, will report directly to the company’s CEO and will form part of Rio’s executive committee.

The CCO would ensure that Rio derived the maximum value from its products, and would continue to strengthen the company’s customer relationships, Rio said in a statement on Monday.

The role would be based out of Singapore, and would be accountable for the sales and marketing, marine, commercial treasury, market analysis and procurement teams.
