First Quantum Minerals
Ltd. has grown from a small mineral operation in Zambia into a multinational
mining business in less than two decades, with a global portfolio of copper and
nickel assets in Europe, Africa, Australia and South America. This phenomenal
growth is down to FQM people who have strived to be Bolder, Smarter and Driven
in everything they do.
In March 2013, First
Quantum Minerals acquired Inmet Mining Corporation, a Canadian-based mining
company primarily producing copper and zinc from mines in Finland, Spain and
Turkey, with also a major copper deposit under development in Panama, known as
Cobre Panama. The combination of the First Quantum and Inmet assets has created
one of the world’s leading copper producers with a geographically diversified
portfolio of high-quality operations and development projects in eight
countries across five continents.
With a strategic plan
to produce more than 1 million tonnes per annum of copper within five years,
the Company is poised to become the largest, widely-held pure-play copper
producer and one of the top five copper producers in the world.
This position will be required to adhere to all relevant requirements, policies, procedures and legal regulations pertaining to health, safety, environment and quality, as well as finance, human resources, and any other regulations as required by the company and relevant to the level of the role and responsibilities of the function.
