      Aug 2010 - Jan 2021

      This was role was created at a critical time in Adventure Specialties Trust (AST) development as the trust sort to narrow its focus from a general outdoor recreation activity provider into an organisation focused on its strengths of youth development and therapeutic programming. The Development Manager role was established to assist this transition and enhance how AST engages with its customers, funders and supporters. This role was diverse and challenging; being a mix of project management, staff management and key stakeholder engagement. Shortly after establishing this role a Senior Leadership team was formed of which this role was a critical member. Over the next 5 years, this team lead a significant transformation of AST, its service delivery more than doubled, social development and adventure therapy work increased to represent 80% of all programming and every aspect of its operation was reviewed and significantly redeveloped into a professional and effective organisation.

      Chief Relaxation Officer

      Taking the year out to travel and adventure in our beautiful country, Aotearoa with my wife and children. After more than 15 years of adventuring and inputting into the lives of young people across Aotearoa, our little whanau thought it was high time to take the plunge and deep dive into a life of adventure together. It's a little scary, a whole lot exciting and ultimately an enormous privilege to see Esme and William develop into the awesome teenagers they are (13 and 14) as we share amazing experiences and grow ever closer as a family.
