Last night, long-serving staff joined Australia’s resources, agriculture, and business communities to celebrate Executive Chairman Mrs Gina Rinehart AO’s birthday and recognise dedicated employees for their years of service.
The event honoured long-serving team members from Hancock Prospecting, Roy Hill, Atlas Iron, and Hancock Agriculture, acknowledging those with over 10 years of commitment.
Guests enjoyed a gourmet selection prepared by Chef Raf and Sarah, featuring 2GR Wagyu brisket and American-style hot dogs.
Hancock Iron Ore CEO Gerhard Veldsman highlighted the company’s dedication to employee well-being, offering family-friendly rosters, regional flights, and generous benefits such as profit sharing and private healthcare. Many long-serving employees have progressed in their careers from Roy Hill to HanRoy, HPPL, and Atlas, contributing to new projects and enhancing operations.
HanRoy CEO Sanjiv Manchanda reflected on the company’s achievements before leading the awards segment. As each CEO announced the recipients, employees stood at their tables, received a well-deserved round of applause, and then took to the stage to accept their plaques and pose for photos.
The evening was a true celebration of loyalty, growth, and appreciation, bringing employees and leaders together to recognise another successful year.
