About

Over three decades as a business leader in New Zealand, including 17 years as a Chief Executive, Chair and Director. Currently Chief Executive of Foodstuffs North Island – a co-operative of 300+ local grocery stores with over 25,000 employees and $10.8b in store revenue in FY24. Also Managing Director of Foodstuffs New Zealand, Chair of the Giltrap Group, and a Director for The New Zealand Initiative. Previously worked at Spark New Zealand/Telecom for 24 years including CEO roles leading the company’s transformation through a focus on people, customer and commercial outcomes. I believe sustained organisational success comes from being driven by customer insight and design, engaging people and purpose, and earning social licence to operate in our communities. Passionate about customers, people, brand, technology, transformation, governance.
