New Chief Executive begins role at Council
Kaipara District Council’s newly appointed Chief Executive Graham Sibery is looking forward to being part of and contributing to the Kaipara community through his new role.
Mr Sibery began his tenure on Monday, bringing extensive experience in the public and private sectors in service delivery, investment infrastructure projects and major contracts.
“I am keen to hear from people about their views of what works and what could be improved, what changes they would like to see in their communities.
“Kaipara is a large, diverse district, with huge potential. I want to meet our business people, residents and iwi, to get to know the people I am working for and take their views on board.
“With the new Council to be elected in October, Kaipara is heading in a good direction, building on the work of the past led by the Commissioners. I appreciate having this opportunity to be part of it,” he says.
Mr Sibery says he is enjoying meeting Council staff and hearing about their experiences in recent times.
“My role as Chief Executive is as part of a team; to run a tight ship; to ensure we implement the new Council’s decisions effectively, and achieve the Council’s vision of what they want for Kaipara. I’m looking forward to working with the Council’s staff, the Commissioners, the new Council, and the community, so that Kaipara can be a great place to live and work, and to continue to move forward successfully.”
