083 - Trailblazing a path in mining and resources with Jo-Anne Dudley

I’m proud to once again offer a new episode of the podcast in conjunction with Woman in Mining and Resources Queensland. WIMARQ is a group that works to support and promote women across all areas of the primary resources industry. Back in in episode 76 I spoke with Tim Crossley, the former COO of BHP. In episode 57 I spoke with Jenny Purdie a longtime WIMARQ member who is currently the CEO of Adani’s renewables operation in Australia. In this episode I speak with the 2018 winner of WIMARQ’s Exceptional Women in Mining Award, Jo-Anne Dudley. Jo-Anne has been working in the mining sector for 25 years. She has worked in FIFO roles, spent years of her life underground, been the only women working on site and survived not one but 2 near fatal workplace accidents. It has been a colourful and energetic career.
