Dame Moya Greene has notified the Board of her intention to step down as a non-executive director of Rio Tinto with immediate effect.

Ms Greene, who joined the Rio Tinto board in September 2018, said "I have enjoyed my time on the Rio Tinto board but the time commitment has proven more considerable than I had expected and I have taken the difficult decision to step down from Rio in order to re-focus on my other roles."
