Eduan Burger
A seasoned finance professional and project manager with over a decade of international experience across the mining, automotive, and healthcare sectors. Specialising in financial modelling, asset management, and operational transformation for resource companies.
With hands-on leadership at major gold producers including Nordgold, Gold Fields, Sibanye, and Eldorado Gold, I bring deep expertise in SAP implementation, capital project control, gold balance reconciliation, and ISO 55001 asset management frameworks.
Based in Queensland, with engagements across Western Australia and New South Wales, I attend the major mining conferences each year and am available for international work. I am also the official Australian agent for AZTEC Mining's gold recovery technologies. I partner with mining companies to drive measurable improvements in financial controls, operational efficiency, and asset performance.
