Albemarle Corporation Australia

Albemarle is honoured to receive a 2024 Volunteer Employer Recognition Award (VERA) from DFES for supporting our employees who volunteer in emergency services.

Thank you to all the dedicated volunteers for your commitment to keeping our communities safe! 🚒🚑

What an incredible evening celebrating the achievements of women and championing gender diversity in the resource sector! It was a pleasure to once again sponsor the Women in Resources Awards Networking Sundowner in Bunbury - with the guest speaker former CME President Fiona Hick sharing insights from her nearly 30-year career in the resources sector. Fiona encouraged attendees to step outside their comfort zones, challenge unacceptable behaviour in the workplace, and recognise our roles in driving positive change and continuous improvement. 

What a shot 📸 Thank you to Belinda from the Big Coffee Van for capturing this moment at our Kemerton Lithium Plant while ensuring our team is kept refreshed.

Today Albemarle announced a new operating structure to increase agility, drive cost efficiencies and maintain long-term competitiveness. The company will transition from two core global business units—Energy Storage and Specialties—to a fully integrated functional model. “The long-term growth potential of our industry is significant, and this structure enables Albemarle to take greater advantage of our world-class resources, global conversion network and process chemistry expertise while driving to a lower-cost structure,” said Chairman and CEO Kent Masters. “As our industry evolves, our new operating structure is designed to flex with the complexities of our markets, improve customer centricity and cost-effectively strengthen our core capabilities to maintain our leadership position.” View the news release here: https://bit.ly/3ZU7xG9

Have you heard of lithium bidding events? When the market price of any item—a home, a new car, a bar of gold—fluctuates, it can be difficult to know its fair price at any given time. That’s true of lithium, too. We are actively contributing to the progress of #pricediscovery and maturity in the evolving #lithium market by conducting bidding events.

Proud to have supported this year’s WIMWA (Women in Mining and Resources WA ) summit. The event was truly inspiring - thanks to the speakers who shared their personal journeys! Also delighted to host Earbus Foundation of Western Australia, showcasing the significant work they do for our community.

Today our teams recognised R U OK? Day - highlighting the importance of having regular conversations, not just today but every day. Our employees reflected on the importance of Albemarle's value of Care and how checking-in on teammates can have an impact.

🤝 Lending a helping hand 🤝 A team of Albemarle employees recently volunteered at Little Things for Tiny Tots, an organization that provides essential baby items to families in need across WA. Our team spent the day sorting baby clothes and packing baby care boxes. Little Things for Tiny Tots said, “We are so grateful for all of the hard work put in and hope they enjoyed their time helping babies and families across WA.”

🌟 Inspiring girls of the future🌟   We were proud to support the The Chamber of Minerals and Energy of Western Australia 2024 Inspiring Girls Careers Forum. Around 200 students from across WA attended the event, which showcased the benefits of working in the sector and the variety of career pathways available. It’s inspiring to see so many girls eager to explore opportunities in our industry. #InspiringGirls #FutureLeaders
