In this episode, Rob Tyson talks to Marco Maestri, the Mining Group Leader at Golder, one of the main providers of independent consultancy, design and construction services to the mining industry at large, who explains the various stages of how a consultant in the mining industry develops their career into management and what key skills, attributes and best practices are needed to develop yourself within this field.  Packed with great content, this episode is aimed at anyone looking to begin their journey into the consultancy field or consultants already in the sector, with details on how and what they should develop to improve their career prospects. KEY TAKEAWAYS  Joining as a consultant at the start of a business’s life gave Marco a unique perspective on what the work meant to the birth and survival of a company, instead of being a mere employee. One of the main attractions of becoming a part of the mining industry was the chance to travel and to experience different cultures.  Marco’s division focusses on study work, front end services, mine design, resource modelling, geotechnical design, water, waste and permitting, meaning his remit is extraordinarily large and all-encompassing. In Marco’s opinion, a good consultancy is built upon diversity first and foremost. An individual consultant must show a talent and understanding of engineering, project management, an eye for detail, and entrepreneurialism.  Having an open mind and a positive attitude towards working on projects, as well as surrounding yourself with successful people in your field will allow you to gain, by osmosis, the skills you need to progress further in your career. As your career progresses you can expect to do less and less practical and technical work, because that’s part of the life-cycle of being a consultant. If this doesn’t happen then maybe something is wrong. Before you can properly grow and develop your team, Marco advises a better understanding of the marketplace itself, as well as your competition. Only by doing this can we establish the kind of team needed in order to face these challenges. The outlook for Golder is bright with more innovation and investment on the horizon. Golder are also investing heavily in bolstering existing mining projects as well as searching out new opportunities.  .BEST MOMENTS ‘I joined just before the crash. It wasn’t my fault, I just want to make that clear!’ ‘It was great to go out there and do these things; to immerse yourself in a different area and culture’ ‘Start to think strategically’ ‘Experience is one of the most important things, but you’ve got to be present in order to get that experience in the first place’ ‘We’re getting close to a boom time again’ VALUABLE RESOURCES   Dig Deep – The Mining Podcast on iTunes Marco Maestri - LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/marcomaestri1/ Golder - https://www.golder.com ABOUT THE HOST   Rob Tyson is an established recruiter in the mining and quarrying sector and decided to produce the “Dig Deep” The Mining Podcast to provide valuable and informative content around the mining industry.
