The WA Mining Club recently hosted its Executive Mingle event, an exclusive gathering designed to connect Young Professional members with some of the most influential figures in the mining industry. This highly anticipated event provided young professionals with a unique opportunity to network with CEOs, Managing Directors, and industry executives in a relaxed and engaging setting.
The response to the event was outstanding, with a strong turnout of both young professionals and VIP guests. Among the high-profile attendees were industry leaders such as Craig Hook, Managing Director; Steve Coughlan, CEO/Executive Chairman of Byrnecut Mining; Peter Kerr, CEO of Mt Gibson Iron; Mick Radi, General Manager of Perenti/Barminco; Wayne Bramwell, MD and CEO Westgold Resources and Ivan Vella, Managing Director & CEO of IGO Limited; jsut to name a few! Their presence reinforced the importance of building strong connections between emerging talent and established industry figures, creating conversations that will help guide the next generation of mining professionals.
The event also marked the official launch of the WA Mining Club’s Emerging Leaders Mentor Program, an initiative designed to provide structured mentorship. This program pairs participants with experienced industry mentors that are WA Mining Club Members, offering a platform for professional growth, leadership development and achieving their goals.
