Bannerman Energy Ltd has strengthened its board with the appointment of chief executive officer Gavin Chamberlain as managing director and Danny Goeman as an independent non-executive director.
Chamberlain joined Bannerman as chief operating officer in February 2023 and was promoted to chief executive officer in March 2024.
He has experience in construction, engineering and project management in the mining sector in southern Africa.
Chamberlain previously served as project director for the development of the US$2 billion Husab Uranium Project in Namibia, which is now one of the world’s largest operating uranium mines.
Goeman joined Bannerman in May 2025 as independent chair of the company’s Product Offtake Committee.
He has experience in commodity marketing across several mining organisations and markets.
Goeman currently serves as chief marketing officer for Hancock Iron Ore and as a non-executive director of RareX Ltd.
Bannerman executive chairman Brandon Munro said Chamberlain’s appointment to the board reflects his role in the company’s recent progress.
“I would like to warmly congratulate Gavin on his elevation to the Bannerman Board. Our recent transformational project funding arrangement with global nuclear leader CNNC/CNOL brings a targeted Final Investment Decision on the Etango Uranium Project into sharp focus. We believe this is a logical point for the progression of Gavin to the combined chief executive officer and managing director role, a reflection of his outstanding contributions over the past two years in leading our business to this position. Gavin’s promotion takes effect as we target completion of the CNOL transaction and a transition into full-scale construction from H2 2026,” Munro said.
Munro said Goeman’s experience will support the company as it prepares for uranium production.
“I am delighted this natural progression enables the company to harness these skills more extensively at board level. His depth of knowledge in the marketing, commercial negotiation and offtake space in both Asian and European markets is second to none and will prove increasingly valuable as we advance further towards uranium production,” Munro said.
