In detail:

Linda enjoys working with clients on decarbonisation initiatives and business transformation projects. With a breadth of experience in metals, mining, critical minerals, hydrogen and future fuels, she is passionate about helping companies create value by designing and executing disruptive strategies that enable a more sustainable world.

Over the past three decades, Linda’s career has taken her around the world and provided a breath of experience living and working in different countries. Having worked with various prominent global mining and metals companies including BHP, Vale, Anglo American, and Rio Tinto, Linda has often enjoyed donning her high-vis gear and hardhat to visit mine sites, steel mills and metal smelters in Australia, Asia, Europe, Africa and the Americas.

In 2018, keen to augment her knowledge of global commodity markets and to play a more proactive role in helping enable decarbonisation and the energy transition, Linda joined a renowned commodity research and consultancy company to lead its global metals and mining business. After being in Singapore for over a decade, she decided to repatriate to Australia and settle in Sydney.

Prior to joining Baringa, Linda oversaw the commissioning of renewable gas projects and industry advocacy work to hasten development of Australia’s nascent Biomethane and Hydrogen renewable gas sectors.

Outside of work, Linda loves spending time with family and friends, walking, beaching, and enjoying nature.
