He resigned as CEO in 2020 following a week of international controversy over Rio Tinto's destruction of Juukan Gorge, a priceless Australian Aboriginal sacred site which had evidence of 46,000 years of continual human occupation.

Jacques had been named by the Harvard Business Review as one of the world's best chief executives prior to his departure of Rio Tinto in 2020.
