Thiess

Today, we are proud to celebrate a momentous occasion: Thiess' 90th anniversary. On 16 April 1934, Thiess Bros, a small farming and roadworks company, began operating in rural Australia. Ninety years later, we have grown across seven countries and three continents, with more than 15,000 employees – to be at the forefront of sustainable mining and infrastructure services. Since our humble beginnings, our pioneering spirit has been the driving force behind our success. It's not just about the number of years but the ambition to do more, be better, and reach further. To pioneer a brighter tomorrow.   Learn more: https://lnkd.in/gQnjDfax   #Thiess #ThiessPeople #Thiess90 #MakeYourMark #Discover #Accountable #Respectful #Empowered

During MINExpo 2024, Matt Sayers, Head of Assets Americas, had the privilege of participating in a Liebherr Mining Masterclass session alongside Brian Boitano, Executive General Manager of Sales and Marketing at Brisbane Mining Sales. Their insightful discussion on how Liebherr’s commitment to excellence translates into high-class machinery that enhances the success of companies like Thiess was expertly delivered.   As one of the world’s largest mining services providers, Thiess has not just collaborated with Liebherr Mining since the late 1980s, but together, we have reshaped the industry. With over 80 Liebherr units operating globally, our partnership has been instrumental in pushing the boundaries of mining equipment performance and efficiency.   During the sessions, these key points about our long-standing collaboration were highlighted: . Proven Partnership: Over 40 years of direct engagement with Liebherr in developing industry-leading excavators, including the R996, R9800, and the latest R9600. . Performance Excellence: Our recent case study of the R9600 at Mt Pleasant in New South Wales showcased its exceptional capabilities, including optimized pit design and superior machine utilization. The anti-stall feature enhances operator efficiency, delivering smoother, faster cycle times.   As we move forward, we are excited about our continued collaboration with Liebherr Mining. Together, we are redefining what’s possible in mining operations. Thank you, Matt Sayers, for representing Thiess and sharing your valuable insights!   Thank you to everyone who attended the sessions!   #MINExpo2024 #Liebherr #Thiess #ThiessAmericas #MiningInnovation #Sustainability #Partnerships #Excavators #MiningExcellence

#MINExpo2024 is wrapped! I'm incredibly proud to have showcased the Thiess brand on the global stage at the mining industry's biggest international event. It was a successful week, filled with many valuable client meetings, new opportunities, and the opportunity to put the Thiess brand in front of nearly 100,000 attendees ( digital channel audiences) in one of our key markets. Our interactive booth drew big crowds and featured VR and 360-degree immersive theatre virtual tours of open-pit and underground projects. We showcased our Asset Services and Reclamation offerings, amongst others. We also had the opportunity to collaborate with industry leaders like Caterpillar Inc., iVolve Industrial Technology on the Komatsu Mining Booth, Wenco International Mining Systems on the Hitachi Energy booth, and Liebherr Mining with our SME's presenting Masterclasses on their main stage. We made key announcements with EACON Mining and FLANDERS and collaborated with Awesome Earthmovers. One of the many highlights was the live podcast with our Executive Chair and CEO, Michael Wright, and Aaron Witt, which will soon be live on Aaron's podcast 'Dirt Talk'. A big shout-out to Darren Toyne, whose months of planning ensured this event's success, and to Timothy Fitzgerald for the exceptional brand campaign you created that set us up for success. It was a true team effort; thank you to Lucy, Katherine, Corky, Vivian, Joc, Matthew L., Ryan, Vanessa, Nick, Mary, Jared and many more who played a big part during the last few months! #MINExpo2024 #Thiess #Mining
