There has been significant movement in Fortescue’s executive team. Chief financial officer (CFO) of Fortescue Energy Deborah Caudle has exited the company after just five months on the job.
The company thanks Caudle for her contribution, and announced that metals CFO Apple Paget would assume her responsibilities until a replacement can be found.
Caudle’s exit was preceded by former Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull stepping down as director at Fortescue Future Industries in early January.
Fortescue’s director of corporate communications Fiona Sugden also stepped down in January.

Before joining Centerra, Millman was general manager finance at Ivanhoe Australia, where he gained experience with listing Ivanhoe on both the ASX and TSX (Toronto Stock Exchange).
