Jacobsz to Head Up North American Investor and Media Relations for Gold Fields
Johannesburg, 31 July 2007: Gold Fields Limited ("Gold Fields") (NYSE, JSE,
DIFX: GFI) is pleased to announce that Willie Jacobsz has been appointed to head
up Investor and Media Relations for Gold Fields in North America.
Ian Cockerill, Chief Executive Officer of Gold Fields said: "Over the past year
Gold Fields` shareholder base in North America has seen significant growth, to
the extent that more than half of our shareholders now reside in that market.
Because of the growing importance of the North American markets to Gold Fields,
we have decided to redeploy Willie to North America. He is a seasoned Gold
Fields executive with an intimate knowledge of the Company and well-known in
that market."
Willie has been with Gold Fields for 18 years, and a member of the Group
Executive Committee, heading up Corporate Affairs and Investor Relations, for
the past six years. Since the start of 2007 he headed up Sustainable Development
and Corporate Affairs.
As a consequence of this move Jacobsz will relinquish executive responsibility
for the Corporate Affairs portfolio to Nerina Bodasing, who will also retain her
current portfolio as Group Head of Investor Relations.
Willie, who will retain executive responsibility for the Group`s Sustainable
Development Portfolio, will be based in Boston.
