Teck Resources announced Tuesday the appointment of Edwin Shadeo as acting vice president, investor relations and treasurer, effective immediately. Shadeo succeeds Emma Chapman, who is leaving Teck to pursue new professional opportunities.

Shadeo joined Teck in 2005 as strategic analyst, business development, coal, and has held progressively more senior and leadership roles in investor relations, corporate development, the office of the president and CEO, and treasury.

“As Treasurer, Edwin has developed extensive relationships within the capital markets community, building on his deep understanding of our business. This, combined with his long-standing experience in investor relations, equips him well to lead our engagement with shareholders,” CEO Jonathan Price said in a news release.

“I would also like to thank Emma for her leadership and outstanding contributions to Teck during her time as Vice President, Investor Relations.”

Shadeo holds a bachelor of commerce from the University of British Columbia, as well as the Chartered Alternative Investment Analyst and Certified Treasury Professional designations.
