NEW CHAIRMAN FOR AUSTRALIAN COAL ASSOCIATION


The Australian Coal Association (ACA) announced that Mr Ross Willims has been appointed as its new independent Chairman effective November 5 2012. Mr Willims, who brings a weight of experience in public policy, advocacy and resources to the role, will succeed retiring Chairman Mr John Pegler.

Dr Nikki Williams, Chief Executive of the ACA, said that Mr Willims – a previous Director and Chairman of the ACA – possesses the essential analytical and strategic characteristics for the role.

“Mr Willims is a respected industry leader whose diverse experience across industry and government will help steer the Australian coal industry through a rapidly changing landscape influenced by significant policy challenges, rising costs, increased international competition and challenges to the industry’s regulatory and social licence.”

“Ross Willims is a Chairman for the times. Our industry is central to many major public policy debates. We have a challenge and an opportunity to constructively engage with state and federal governments to influence policies that will shape Australia and the future development of our rich endowment in coal resources.”

Mr Willims retired from BHP Billiton Metallurgical Coal as Vice President External Affairs earlier this month. He previously served as Vice President Commercial Relations for BHP Billiton Mitsubishi Alliance (BMA) Queensland coal operations, after joining BHP Coal in 1996.  His roles in the private sector have embraced coal interests in Queensland, New South Wales and Indonesia and low emission technology interests in Australia and internationally.  Mr Willims is an Economist who has held senior roles in the Commonwealth Government and is a former Director-General of Mines and Energy in the Queensland Government.

He has served on a range of boards and advisory groups, including the Queensland Premier’s Business Round Table (1998-2012), the Queensland Council on Climate Change, the Queensland Clean Coal Council, the Queensland Resources Council (including as Chairman of the Council’s Infrastructure Committee from 1998 to 2012) and the National Low Emissions Coal Council.

Mr Willims was awarded a Centenary Medal for service to the mining industry in 2003 and Life Membership of the Queensland Resources Council in 2011. He returns to the Chairmanship of ACA after a previous stint in 2005-06 and was also founding Chairman of Australian Coal Association Low Emissions Technologies Ltd (ACALET).

“We are very pleased to welcome Ross to the role and look forward to his leadership representing one of Australia’s largest and most durable export industries and economic growth engines,” said Dr Williams.

“John Pegler retires after seven years as a Board Member, including almost four years as independent Chairman, having served the industry throughout one of the most transformative periods in its history. He goes with the industry’s profound gratitude and respect, having steered the ACA through significant organisational and leadership development and assisted the industry to navigate a hugely complex policy environment.”
