BHP headquarters in Melbourne, Australia. The diversified mining commodities group, which is listed on the JSE, London, the US and in Australia, announced a leadership reshuffle, following the appoint of a new CEO Brandon Craig to take the reins from July 1, 2026.

BHP Group, the global diversified mining and resources group, on Friday announced changes to its leadership team, the first since a new CEO-elect replaced former CEO Mike Henry.

Last month, the board announced that Brandon Craig would become CEO and director from July 1. On Friday, the group announced further changes to the executive leadership team.

"These new appointments ensure we continue to build organisational capacity, with the right mix of skills, experience, and perspectives to deliver BHP's strategy and pursue our growth agenda,” Craig said in a statement.

The President Americas role was being split into President North America and President South America. This would allow a greater focus on each of these regions, he said.
