## Suitability for the current role

### Documented role scope and role fit [leigh_collins_role_fit]

Current role at cutoff · analyst inference · low materiality

Leigh Collins joined Aurelia in 2019 and led commercial contracts, sales and marketing, reporting and investor-relations functions before becoming Interim CFO on 25 July 2026. Her profile reports Chartered Accountant status and a University of Melbourne Bachelor of Commerce, with earlier senior finance and business-transformation roles at MMG, Lend Lease, Newcrest and Schlumberger and an earlier KPMG career. This is relevant finance experience, but the interim CFO tenure was only about eleven weeks by cutoff, too short to assess performance in that role.

**Attribution:** Responsibility not applicable. This is a limited role-scope inference from the issuer-documented position; it is not an outcome or personal-performance claim.

**Relevance:** The role is pertinent to oversight or execution of the company’s disclosed business; evidence on individual effectiveness is limited.

## Evidence gaps

- Prior employer titles, tenure dates and performance outcomes remain incomplete where no dates were provided in the opened biographies; no personal causal attribution is inferred from company results.

- Credential and education claims are reported by issuer or secondary biography and were not independently checked with issuing institutions or professional bodies.

- Person-specific open-web searches are not exhaustive court, regulator, sanctions, safety, environmental or credential checks; a no-relevant-finding result is not a clearance.
