Key Account Manager – Mining
What influence led you to a career in mining?
My dad has worked in the industry, therefore I always had an interest in this industry. In 2009 I had the opportunity to move from sales and business development roles in the marine industry, to join the mining and resources sector. I had qualifications in finance which has assisted in developing a career path in customer support and Key Account Management.
What personal attributes and experiences have helped you succeed?
When I am not working, I can be found at a drag racing strip racing. I was born into a mining and motor racing family, with my dad enjoying success on the race track and also in this industry. It’s not surprising I have found myself following in a similar path. My advice is set your goal path, work out “how and what it takes” to achieve and don’t give up until you have reached your goal.
What do you do as a Key Account Manager for Mining?
I sell Hitachi mining excavators and dump trucks to major mining houses and contractors across the east coast. My work involves seeking growth opportunities for fleet deployment in the coal and hard rock sectors, and provide solutions for customers to achieve their business goals. I work closely with mining assembly and regional branches to coordinate seamless transition from site assembly to commissioning of the equipment, with the aim to ensure Hitachi is the preferred equipment supplier. I really enjoy my job as no day is ever the same. It provides a great sense of achievement to win a fleet supply contract, then see the equipment operating in the field.
Do you feel that you are ‘pioneering’ in this field?
As a 5’5” pocket rocket, at first look I am far from what the average person would imagine a member of the Hitachi mining sales team to be. Sometimes I can be the only lady in the room, but this has never stopped me in the pursuit of my goals. I know I am capable to get the job completed successfully. I am passionate about this industry and was also very lucky to have fantastic mentors to help me navigate my road.
What advice would you give to others interested in a career in mining?
I encourage other women to consider careers in mining and construction. Look for opportunities and apply for roles you are interested in. Make yourself known and most importantly, show interest. Remember you are worthy of the opportunity based on your capabilities. Remind yourself that nothing is impossible – the word itself says “I’m possible”.

🎄 Hitachi Wacol’s Christmas Mission: Supporting the Salvation Army Foodbank Appeal 🎁
This year, Hitachi Wacol proudly supported the Salvation Army Foodbank Appeal for 2024, tackling the growing issue of food insecurity in Australia. Many families are no longer just cutting back but are missing meals entirely—sometimes for days.
Driven by the belief that “No one should struggle alone,” our Christmas Foodbank Appeal aimed to bring hope and relief to families in crisis. Through generous donations from our team, we provided 30 boxes of food—an incredible 70% increase from last year!
The Salvation Army Centenary Corps has extended their heartfelt thanks to everyone who contributed, recognising the generosity and care shown by the Hitachi community.
A huge thank you to everyone who made this possible. Together, we’ve made a real difference. 💛
Wishing you a joyful and festive season—Merry Christmas! 🎅🎁
