To increase collaboration and engagement at Miami operations, the Smelter and Mine organizations have been realigned under Operations, Maintenance and Technical Services effective January 1, 2023.
This change provides an opportunity to leverage the strengths of all employees, supports Freeport Edge principles, unifies similar aspects of our organization and integrates functions to influence cohesiveness and productivity.
The following individuals will assume new positions and report to me:

Please join me in congratulating Michael, Larry and Tim and offering your support in their new roles.
