Rawdon is an award-winning broadcaster with a journalism career that spans twenty years.
His career started as a reporter and news anchor with the BBC before he transferred to New Zealand to work for TVNZ, initially as a reporter for One News and then for the 7pm daily current affairs programme, Close Up.
He became an established presenter for TVNZ as host of political show Agenda and the NZ version of Dragon’s Den.
His biggest career challenge came when he anchored TVNZ’s coverage of both Christchurch earthquakes – the first of which set a new record for continuous rolling coverage to an audience of over 2 million.
In 2011 Rawdon became the inaugural host of TVNZ’s Saturday Breakfast show, before taking up the job he is most well-known for – presenting TVNZ’s daily Breakfast show.
