Gary has been with the Society in the role of General Manager since June 2003. He is a Londoner and moved to New Zealand at the beginning of in 2003 with his wife and two children (Sam, 10 and Alexandra, 8). He holds a number of business-related qualifications, most recent of which is a post-graduate Diploma in Management Practice from Middlesex University.

When deregulation brought cable television and telecommunications to the UK in the '90's, Gary managed a Field Operations team for Telewest plc in North London. He also held a number of operational roles at British Alcan, Glenbran Plc and at the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister in the UK.

With previous experience across a number of industries and a mainly corporate background, Gary brings a wealth of useful experience to the role which he believes will allow us to achieve best value from our resources.

He always says "I would tell you about my leisure activities, however with two boisterous young children I have long ago given up all hope of having any, and prefer instead to spend time with my family!"
