Rio Tinto


Aluminium for lightweight cars. Copper to help things work more efficiently – from renewables to the power in your home. Iron ore for the steel in our electricity infrastructure. Lithium for electric vehicles and battery storage. And many of the materials we provide are used to make the things in everyday life too: like borates that help crops grow and titanium for paint.
We work in 35 countries – in mines, smelters and refineries, as well as in sales offices, data centres, research and development labs and with artificial intelligence. Our geologists explore the Earth’s wildest terrain. Our wildlife specialists work to protect and conserve grizzly bears in Canada and migratory shorebirds in Western Australia. Our marketing teams make sure our essential materials meet the specific needs of customers around the world. And we are home to one of the world’s largest robots and maybe one of the smallest – we call him Mark.
The transition to a low carbon world offers a unique opportunity for us to grow, and to play an important role in tackling this global challenge. We know we have a major carbon footprint, significant scope 1 and 2 emissions and material indirect scope 3 emissions. We must switch to renewables at scale, electrify everything we can electrify, work across our entire value chain and accelerate the development of new technology.
We were founded in 1873, on the banks of the Rio Tinto river in Andalusia, Spain. We are proud of everything we have achieved. At Rio Tinto, we know our future is even brighter than our past.
Careers
A drive for innovation and continuous improvement is at the heart of our company's purpose: Finding better ways to provide the materials the world needs.
Here, you’ll find a home for curious people who care about their work and colleagues, are courageous about finding better ways to do things, and are empowered to adapt quickly to solve problems and meet opportunities.
We are committed to an inclusive environment where people feel comfortable to be themselves. And we want our people to feel that all voices are heard, all cultures respected and that a variety of perspectives are not only welcome – they are essential to our success.
Our values – care, courage and curiosity – guide how we work and how we treat each other.
RioExcel
A CAREER PATHWAY FOR TECHNICAL EXPERTS
RioExcel is for technical specialists who want to progress their career as an expert in their field.
In many organisations, career progression means taking on responsibility for leading teams. But through our RioExcel programme, we offer our technical specialists an alternative career path – one where they can focus on building and sharing their expertise.
RioExcel is open to all technical experts in our business, and guides career development planning, recognition, and a challenging and rewarding path to progress within our company.
Are you a techie at heart?
RioExperts are leaders in their chosen field. An independent panel of experts and senior leaders from across our business assess applications against five strict criteria:
- Technical expertise
Do they demonstrate deep technical knowledge and expertise? - Commercial and strategic outcomes
How have their skills contributed to quantifiable commercial or strategic business success? - Contributes to community knowledge
Do they proactively share knowledge across Rio Tinto through participation in forums, communities of practice and active use of knowledge management systems? - Professional recognition as a thought leader
Are they externally recognised experts at the forefront of technical thought leadership in their chosen field? - Live our values
Do they live the Rio Tinto behaviours, values and The way we work?
Every voice matters
We are committed to an inclusive environment where people feel comfortable to be themselves. We want our people to feel that all voices are heard, all cultures respected and that a variety of perspectives are not only welcome – they are essential to our success. We treat each other fairly and with dignity regardless of race, gender, nationality, ethnic origin, religion, age, sexual orientation or anything else that makes us different.
We also aim for a diverse workplace – not just because it is good for our business, but because it is the right thing to do. We are not where we want to be on gender diversity, so we have established clear targets to improve the number of women in our organisation, at all levels. We have gender-neutral parental leave in all countries in which we operate and our policy on inclusion and diversity reinforces our expectations around behaviours and personal accountability. We set ambitious goals to increase our diversity year on year.
We are also a Founding Member of the Australian Male Champions of Change, a group established to elevate gender equality.
