BHP Billiton veteran Dean Dalla Valle is expected to seek other roles in the corporate sector when he steps down as COO in March 2017. He does not intend to retire when he ends a four-decade career with the resources giant, and may opt for a senior executive position at a smaller company. BHP CEO Andrew Mackenzie has praised Dalla Valle’s contribution to the company. He had been regarded as a candidate to eventually succeed Mackenzie.
