Vic was born and raised in Lower Hutt brought up painting fences, chopping down trees and is pretty choice at backing trailers.

During her studies she established her own piano school and waited tables. In 1995 she graduated with a Masters of Commerce and Administration from Victoria University and began working for Telecom.

From her very first job on the paper run through to her recent role as the Managing Director of Xero New Zealand, Vic has been ambitious, collaborative, and unafraid to challenge the status quo. Prior to her leadership position at Xero, Vic held senior management roles in sales and marketing at Chorus and Telecom.

Vic has extensive business experience managing large teams, high-growth portfolios, and billion-dollar revenue streams. she’s also sought after in governance roles, currently on the Board of Contact Energy, one of New Zealand’s largest listed companies.

Vic is also actively involved in the not-for-profit sector where she serves as the Chair of Figure.NZ. Vic is also a director of Aura Information Security, Creative HQ and is a trustee of the NZ Hi-Tech Trust. In addition to these roles, she is also a member of NZ Global Women.

In the community Vic has always found time to give back. She is the current President of the Eastern Suburbs Local Gymnastics Club that her daughter attends and was a coach of the New Zealand Special Olympic Soccer team.

In an era where big data and technology continue to merge to create the beginnings of a 4th industrial revolution we feel that as an organisation with a strong focus on the prosperity of New Zealand it is important to provide an opportunity to help you as students to not only be able to gain from us the skills to get a job but also to help equip you with some of the tangible workplace skills you will need to succeed in this new era.

We are therefore excited to present, in collaboration with CPA Australia, the first annual Workplace of the Future Student Summit: How to Survive the 4th Industrial Revolution!

You will have the opportunity across the day to hear from inspirational speakers from the world of business, technology and sport who will be sharing their insights into what you could expect from this new era and challenging you to think differently about your future. This is combined with a data driven project (hackathon) which will showcase the types of engagements that with the proliferation of big data and analytics will become commonplace in our industry over the coming years.

We hope you enjoy the day!
