As current chief financial officer (CFO) Anthea McKinnell plans for retirement, Santos has welcomed her replacement in Sherry Duhe.
Duhe was most recently interim chief executive officer (CEO) at Newcrest, where she worked with the company to negotiate and complete the sale of the company to Newmont.
She was also CFO at Woodside Energy until early 2022, coming off the back of a 13-year career with Shell.
Santos managing director and CEO Kevin Gallagher has thanked McKinnell for her time at the company, welcoming Duhe into the fray.
“Anthea joined Santos more than five years ago and has steered the finance function through a period of significant inorganic and organic growth,” he said.
“Anthea has been a valued member of the Santos executive leadership team and I wish her all the very best for the future as she returns to Perth for family reasons.
“Sherry’s demonstrated financial capability, knowledge of the complex and dynamic energy and financial markets in which Santos operates, and experience in engaging with investors, capital markets and governments, positions her well to support the Santos management team and board of directors in delivering superior value for our shareholders into the future.”
Duhe holds a Bachelor of Science in Accounting from Louisiana State University and an International Master of Business Administration from the University of South Carolina. She is also a Certified Public Accountant.
Duhe will join the company from mid-October.
