BHP prepares to start succession process for mining’s top job
BHP Group is preparing to begin looking for a new chief executive officer in the coming months, with key lieutenants already jostling for position to succeed boss Mike Henry at the top of the world’s biggest miner. The understanding at BHP is that Henry is now heading toward the end of his tenure, according to company insiders. They emphasised that no decision has been made. But some people close to the company say a change could come as soon as early next year, and some top executives have begun increasing their interaction with investors and other stakeholders ahead of a likely succession process.
