He has the proven people and leadership skills to build on NZCB’s success to date and take the organisation and the NSO to the next level. Malcolm is currently, and will remain, Deputy Chair of the New Zealand Construction Industry Council, therefore is very familiar with the interface between the building sector with central and local government. He brings his considerable connections, advocacy and influencing skills to benefit NZCB members, lift our profile, and ensure that we have a voice at the table.

Malcolm holds a Master of Management with Distinction from Massey University, as well as a Post Graduate Diploma in Business Administration, and a Bachelor of Business Studies (Property & Construction). He has also run his own successful business, Accent Architects as Co-Director and Practice Manager for 12 years, providing familiarity with the challenges of operating a business in the building sector.

Malcolm is passionate about the building sector and deeply committed to working to lift knowledge, skills, and performance across the sector, while ensuring that NZCB members interests are well represented. He will be based in both Tauranga and Wellington, commuting to Tauranga weekly from his Wellington home.
