Mining professional. Girl-dad. Dog lover. Pizza enthusiast.
Companies I have worked with:
Mining careers don't come with a map.

Which is odd, really, given the industry is quite fond of maps.

You can be technically sharp, hard-working, and respected on site, but still find yourself wondering, “Right… so what’s next?”
That’s normal. Mining careers don’t always follow a neat ladder.
The path from site to corporate, technical specialist to leader, one commodity to another, or good operator to trusted senior decision-maker isn’t always obvious. And the rules that matter most are rarely written down anywhere useful.
That’s why I created Mining Mentor.
I’m Andrew Malone, and I help mining professionals make confident career moves in an industry where hard work alone doesn’t always get you seen.
Whether you’re choosing between a technical or leadership pathway, chasing a promotion, considering a move across site, commodity, or location, or trying to step into a more senior role, Mining Mentor gives you practical, industry-specific guidance for the decisions that shape your career.
Not fluffy career advice.
Not “follow your passion” nonsense in a hi-vis vest.
And not generic coaching from someone who doesn’t understand the difference between being excellent on site and being visible to the people making the next big decision.
