A commercially astute, forward-thinking leader who has successfully led national teams and multi-million-dollar programmes to support organisational priorities, improve business results, and better the lives of New Zealanders. I have a proven track record of leading highly engaged and effective teams across various domains, such as service delivery, strategic partnerships and relationship management, operational policy, strategy, product development and technology delivery. My expertise lies in building strategic partnerships, across sectors, and redesigning and implementing significant change in strategic and operational prioritisation processes, frameworks, and implementing robust delivery models to tackle emerging challenges. I understand the importance of delivering fit-for-purpose services to customers and continually transforming operations to meet their ever-changing needs.I enjoy building high-performing teams that willingly engage, support each other, and get excited about the future. My ability to build trust, authentic relationships and an inclusive culture is undeniably one of my greatest strengths. To me, people are the essence of any business, whether that be internally or externally!
