    • Around our world

      What do New Zealand, Canada, Chile, Peru, Mexico, the US, and Indonesia all have in common? We have operations in each of them. Our mining and materials portfolio includes businesses in more than 15 countries and 300 sites in Australia alone.

      Since spinning out of BHP in 2000, we’ve grown our business into new products, industries and regions, and continue to pursue new opportunities.

      Our business world

      Steel is essential to the world; to the roads we drive on, the houses we live in and the buildings we work in. Across our portfolio of related materials businesses, we manufacture and distribute steel products, recycle steel and produce mining consumables and grinding media.

      We do a lot more than steel though and are now a tier 2 iron mining company with growing operations in Whyalla and South Australia. We are always looking for new ventures to diversify our offering, our customer base and our ability to deliver.

      Don’t take our word for it. Visit our corporate website for more information.

      You’ll need to be flexible about what you do and where you work, as you try new things and get to grips with our diverse operations. While fresh starts and new opportunities will excite you, we’ll still ensure you have full support as you move from one role to another.
