David Way is a Executive Mining Engineer. Colleagues describe them as "I had the privilege of working closely with David for several years since he took his post of the most senior leadership team of Philippines’ operation (Didipio mine) in 2014. I can confidently say that he is a highly talented and dedicated professional. David possesses a unique blend of technical expertise, leadership skills, and a strong work ethic. Throughout our time working together, he consistently demonstrated an exceptional ability to lead Didipio team especially during a challenging time of FTAA (mining permit) renewal as well as navigating through mine care and maintenance period in the midst of Covid-19. What truly sets David apart is his leadership style. He has a natural ability to inspire and motivate his management team, fostering a collaborative and productive work environment. David is not only a great team player but also an effective leader and who can guide his management team toward achieving their goals which helped them to grow and excel. His deep understanding of the mining operations and his stakeholder’s skill to interact with junior staff up to the high senior government officials made him a valuable asset to the organisation. During my (internal audit) interaction with him, he consistently showed a willingness to engage in positive collaboration to continuously improve internal controls of the Philippines' operations. I would consider him also as a mentor who is open to share his knowledge. In addition to his professional skills, David is a person of integrity and character. He is easily to get approached with positive attitude, making him a pleasure to work with. He is also known for his adaptability, which is a valuable trait in ever-changing of the mining industry. I have no doubt that David would be a valuable asset to any organisation, and I wholeheartedly recommend him for any executive role that requires technical expertise, leadership, and a commitment to excellence. He is not only a great colleague but also a wonderful person to know and work with." and "David is a very astute professional Manager with excellent people skills, knowledgeable, leadership and fairness which has brought total respect from his workforce.Having known David during his tenure at OZ Minerals / Prominent Hill both as a Mine Manager and Deputy General Manager I have always found him to be a pleasure to work for / supportive and in addition has a great sense of humour."
