Our products are essential ingredients in nearly every aspect of modern life. Our competitive portfolio of world-class operations and undeveloped resources provides the metals and minerals that enable a cleaner, greener, and more sustainable world, while meeting the growing consumer demands of both developed and developing economies.

As a responsible mining company, we work alongside our business partners and various stakeholders to unlock the sustainable value our products represent—not only for our shareholders, communities, and the countries where we operate, but also for society as a whole.
Anglo American is re-imagining mining to improve people’s lives.
Job Description:
We are seeking an exceptional, strategically minded Principal Quality Management professional to shape and lead Anglo American's quality objectives across Engineering, Maintenance, and Supply Chain functions globally.
This is a highly influential enterprise role operating at the intersection of asset integrity, technical governance, operational performance, and strategic sourcing. The successful candidate will establish and continuously evolve Anglo American's integrated quality management framework, ensuring quality principles are embedded throughout the entire asset lifecycle—from engineering design and strategic sourcing through manufacturing, logistics, construction, commissioning, operation, maintenance, and asset renewal.
A key success factor for this role is recognising and strengthening the critical relationship between quality performance and supply chain effectiveness. In a complex global mining environment, supplier capability, manufacturing quality, technical compliance, and sourcing decisions directly influence safety outcomes, asset reliability, operational continuity, total cost of ownership, and business performance. This role will provide strategic leadership to ensure quality considerations are embedded within supplier selection, category strategies, contract management, and vendor development programmes across a global network of critical equipment and service providers.
Working closely with senior leaders across Technical, Engineering, Maintenance, Projects, and Supply Chain functions, the Principal Quality Management professional will act as the custodian of supplier oversight, quality governance, providing independent assurance, driving continual improvement, and ensuring that quality risks are proactively identified and mitigated before they impact operations.
By aligning quality management practices with Anglo American's business objectives, industry-leading standards, and asset performance ambitions, this role will play a pivotal part in improving safety, reducing operational risk, enhancing supplier performance, increasing equipment reliability, minimising unplanned downtime, and creating sustainable value across the Group's global operations.
Core Responsibilities (amongst others):
- Define, implement, and continuously evolve Anglo American's enterprise Quality Management Strategy and integrated Quality Management System (QMS) across Engineering, Maintenance, Projects, and Supply Chain functions.
- Serve as the enterprise authority for quality governance, establishing policies, standards, procedures, technical specifications, and assurance frameworks aligned with Anglo American requirements, regulatory obligations, asset integrity principles, OEM requirements, and international standards.
- Provide independent assurance over critical business processes, including engineering design, strategic sourcing, procurement, manufacturing, fabrication, construction, installation, commissioning, and maintenance execution, ensuring compliance with defined quality standards and performance requirements.
- Lead the development and execution of quality assurance, audit, inspection, and process maturity programmes across operations, projects, and supply chains to drive consistency, compliance, and continuous improvement.
- Identify, assess, and mitigate quality-related risks across the asset lifecycle, with particular focus on critical supply chains, supplier capability, manufacturing quality, logistics complexity, and operational readiness.
- Partner with Supply Chain leadership to embed quality requirements into strategic sourcing strategies, supplier qualification, category management, contract governance, supplier relationship management, and critical equipment procurement decisions.
- Lead supplier quality governance for strategically important suppliers, including qualification, capability assessments, performance monitoring, vendor development initiatives, and technical assurance of products and services supplied to Anglo American operations.
- Develop and execute a risk-based global supplier assurance programme, including audits of critical suppliers, management of corrective actions, and oversight of third-party inspection and verification service providers.
- Establish assurance processes that verify sourced products, equipment, components, and services meet technical, regulatory, reliability, safety, and lifecycle performance requirements before deployment into operations.
- Define and maintain maintenance quality standards, inspection requirements, workmanship expectations, and acceptance criteria to ensure alignment with asset integrity objectives, engineering change governance, OEM requirements, and statutory compliance obligations.
- Develop quality intelligence, performance metrics, and reporting frameworks that provide visibility of quality risks, supplier performance, compliance status, and improvement opportunities to operational and executive leadership.
- Drive the adoption of innovative technologies and digital quality solutions, leveraging data, predictive analytics, automation, artificial intelligence, and advanced inspection technologies to strengthen quality governance, optimise supply chain performance, enhance asset reliability, and deliver sustainable business value.
- Drive a culture in which quality is recognised as a strategic enabler of safety, asset reliability, operational performance, supply chain resilience, and sustainable business value.
