As MEC Mining continues to experience exponential growth in demand for geotechnical services, we are pleased to announce that Julianne Armstrong is stepping into the role of Geotechnical Manager for the global mining consultancy. 

Julianne, an internationally experienced geotechnical specialist, steps up from her role as Principal Geotechnical Engineer where, as team leader, she has spearheaded the company’s capabilities on numerous projects Australia-wide.  

MEC Mining Chief Executive Officer, Christofer Catania, states that Julianne has impressed during her 18 months with the company. “MEC’s expansion of our geotechnical services arm was part of the company’s vision to provide clients with a full suite of technical services. Julianne has played a pivotal role in achieving that, improving our both capabilities and client base, resulting in a solid pipeline of work.”

Julianne is keen to embrace her new responsibilities and welcomes the opportunity to help MEC Mining further develop its already thriving Geotechnical Services arm. “The importance of the services we provide to the sector can’t be underestimated.” she says. “Knowing I have the backing of a highly qualified and experienced team makes this a great opportunity to deliver the highest calibre service to all our clients.”

Catania believes Julianne’s previous 17 years’ operational experience with a particular focus on underground metals, has equipped her with both the technical and leadership skills to fill this demanding role. He says “She has a winning combination of knowledge, great communication skills and passion for what she does. Julianne has already proven herself a valuable and respected member of the MEC team and will undoubtedly be a great asset in her new role to our clients.”
