In detail:

A chemical engineer by trade, Caroline started her career working offshore on oil rigs in Norway and Angola. She led technical operations, working with high-pressure equipment, radiation and explosives in very challenging environments. This adventure enabled Caroline to build resilience, become very resourceful and adapt to new environments. During her offshore career, Caroline was instrumental to delivering operational excellence programmes and in 2015, her team were awarded the CEO’s operational excellence award for flawless deployment of a new technology, increasing her client’s operational efficiency by 20%.

After 6 years working on oil rigs, it was time to throw the dirty coveralls in the wash and transition to a career in consulting.

Since joining Baringa 5 years ago, Caroline has leveraged her industry experience to help build the digital, data and technology practice within our Resources Transition department. Her passion is helping clients deliver insights and drive business value through innovative digital and data solutions. Over the last 2 years, Caroline has taken a lead role in shaping industry leading emissions measurement and reporting strategies and solutions, supporting our clients take the first step on their decarbonisation journey.

Caroline grew up in Melbourne, Australia’s sporting capital. She loves sport and is a keen hiker, running and sailor. Since COVID, she has become a yoga enthusiast and has been known to a headstand at a Baringa party or two.
