Mining services contractor NRW Holdings has appointed Peter Bryant as its chief financial officer, effective from May 5.
The appointment comes at a time when the company is owed approximately $113.3 million in trade receivables and contracting assets, following a decision by the South Australian government to place the Whyalla Steelworks – owned by OneSteal Manufacturing – into administration.
Additionally, the company’s previous CFO, Richard Simons, tendered his resignation on January 13, with Alex Hall acting in an interim capacity.
Golding Contractors, a wholly owned subsidiary of NRW, has a contract with OneSteel’s parent company GFG Alliance to undertake work at the site.
Mr Bryant joins the company following a stint as Perth Airport’s CFO. He also spent a considerable amount of time with Perenti in the same capacity.
“I am delighted to welcome Peter to NRW,” chief executive and managing director Jules Pemberton said.
“Peter brings a wealth of experience across the global mining services markets through his service at Perenti and prior to that at Barminco and GRD Minproc.”
The Whyalla market update also resulted in NRW rescheduling its first-half results for the 2025 financial year.
Once revealed, NRW told the market its normalised net earnings had increased from $58 million to $58.4 million, while its revenue climbed from $1.42 billion to $1.65 billion.
Mr Pemberton said the company appeared set to continue its strong organic growth into the new financial year.
As of 10.17am AWST, NRW shares were up 2 per cent to $2.85.
