Australia: Ross Harper has been appointed the Executive General Manager of the Cement division of Boral following a restructuring initiative. The new role includes his previous responsibilities as Operations Manager because Boral's cement business is set to decrease in size following the divestments of Boral's Asian Construction Materials businesses along with the planned closure of clinker manufacturing at the Waurn Ponds cement plant. Harper replaces Divisional Managing Director Mike Beardsell who will leave the organisation by the end of January 2013.

Previously National Operations Manager, Boral Cement, Harper joined Boral in January 2006. He has over 30 years experience with industrial process industries including the energy, pulp and paper and building material sectors. He held the role of General Manager, Golden Bay Cement with Fletcher Building before joining Boral as General Manager NSW, Blue Circle Southern Cement. Ross holds a Doctorate in Chemistry from Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand.
