Background

About Robert McNally

Professional Engineer and senior leader with 20+ years of experience in mine operations, geotechnical engineering, tailings management, water stewardship, and large-scale project development. I have a proven record of delivering safe, efficient, and responsible resource development while leading complex operations and multi-disciplinary teams. My leadership experience spans operations, geotechnical design, tailings governance, reclamation planning, and regulatory compliance. I have built and implemented enterprise-wide risk management frameworks, dam safety programs, and sustainability governance systems aligned with global best practices. I am recognized for integrating new and emerging technologies into operations - such as autonomous haulage systems and advanced continuous improvement initiatives - while strengthening dam safety governance through program development, independent reviews, and alignment with Canadian Dam Safety Association standards. I consistently champion safety, ESG performance, and stakeholder engagement in every role I take on. Today, my focus is on advancing sustainable development by aligning water, tailings, reclamation, and operational strategies with evolving industry standards and societal expectations. I am looking to apply my experience to create value and deliver resilient, sustainable solutions across industries.
