Behind the scenes Working for members Jason Kuchel, Chief Executive Bev Janssan, Director Member Services Jonathon Forbes, Director Industry Development Anne Walker, Director Industry Marketing Stephanie Walker, Director Indigenous Relations Aleisha Sullivan, Administrative Officer Debbie Boyd, Membership Officer Margaret Donaldson, PA & Finance Officer Nikki Borchardt, Administrative Officer The South Australian Chamber of Mines and Energy Council MR JOHN ROBERTS MR GRAHAM ASCOUGH New appointments Two key positions were created by SACOME in 2007 to strengthen the organisation’s ability to represent its members’ interests: Mr Jonathon Forbes was appointed Director Industry Development with a mandate to provide programs and projects to assist industry in its development, taking a pro-active approach. Johnathon works with government and other stakeholders to ensure the resources industry is well placed to take advantage of opportunities and overcome the constraints of a growing sector. Ms Anne Walker was appointed Director of Industry Marketing in recognition of the need to better promote the resources industry to the South Australian Community, particularly in light of the community backlash beginning in Western Australia, a state heavily reliant on mining. Anne communicates with a range of stakeholders to enhance understanding of the industry and the role of SACOME. Exploration Committee The Exploration Committee comprises of mainly industry members and is ably chaired by Kevin Wills from Flinders Mines. The committee has discussed issues as diverse as land access, flow-through share schemes, heritage clearances, research and development and the Mining Act Amendments, to name just a few. The committee has been instrumental in policy setting and providing direction on behalf of the members. Occupational health & safety Committee The OH&S Committee was reconvened to identify and address issues and share information. Issues that have been dealt with include OH&S training facilities for South Australia, Protection from Incrimination, Review of the Occupational Health, Safety and Welfare Regulations 1995, Alcohol Management and Generic Safety Inductions. The committee, chaired by Andy Simmons from BHP Billiton has also kept close ties with the Mining and Quarrying Occupational Health & Safety Committee (MAQOSHC) with a SACOME OH&S Committee member, Kevin Husler, representing members’ interests on MAQOSHC.

New premises The growth of the resources sector and a corresponding growth within the South Australian Chamber of Mines and Energy meant the organisation outgrew its previous site. SACOME began 2008 in new, larger premises on Glen Osmond Road Fullarton. Mines and Energy House is a larger, contemporary style office that symbolises a new stage for SACOME and its increasing role in serving the resources industry. The refurbished office accommodates the growing SACOME team and allows SACOME to host an increasing number and variety of events for its members. The finishing touch to the offices is an art exhibition of industrial landscapes by South Australian artist, Robert Habel. The Minister for Mineral Resources Development, the Honourable Paul Holloway officially opened Mines and Energy House at a special event for members, government representatives and industry leaders. Initially, known as the Chamber of Mines, the organisation was based within the offices of the Chamber of Commerce. The small office comprised a team of just two staff. There has been a steady growth since that time, with the Chamber of Mines adding Energy to its portfolio - and then during the following years, including service providers to the mining and energy sectors.
