Crafting Connections, Building Success

Guy Roberts

With a wealth of experience in mine maintenance across the Bowen Basin, Guy Roberts  brings both grit and warmth to his role at Richglen Maintenance Services. Known for his hands-on approach, Guy has been integral to the company’s success, particularly in structural maintenance and construction, areas where his expertise shines.

Reflecting on his time at Richglen, he highlights one project as particularly rewarding.

"A recent BMA Caval Ridge Dragline 'CD' replacement.

“Having involvement throughout the planning and execution phases made it a memorable project.”

He became a shareholder of Richglen in 2016 and is passionate about the company's growth and its people. He believes that what sets Richglen apart is simple yet powerful.

"It's definitely the people that make the difference."

For Guy, it’s this culture of respect and camaraderie that keeps him motivated, helping him drive the business forward while maintaining the personal connections that have been the heart of Richglen's success.

Outside of work, he unwinds by spending time with his wife, family, keeping active, and attending rodeos. His career has taken him to some fascinating places, but Guy recalls his time at Ranger, a uranium mine in Jabiru, NT, as particularly unique.

"It was the most regulated mine in the world, given it was in the middle of the Kakadu National Park,” he said.

Looking ahead, Guy envisions Richglen continuing to grow and diversify, staying true to its roots by "doing what we have always done"—delivering excellence while embracing new opportunities.
