Leading economist Cam Bagrie has been appointed as an independent director, board member, and chair of peak road freight organisation Ia Ara Aotearoa Transporting New Zealand.
Bagrie was the former chief economist at ANZ and has held positions at National Bank, Treasury, and Statistics New Zealand. He is currently an independent chair of the governance committee of the NZ Apple and Pear Inc and a board member of Life Education Trust.
Transporting New Zealand chief executive Dom Kalasih said Bagrie would bring “additional skills, experience, and knowledge to the board and to our leadership”.
The appointment was made by the organisation’s new board this week, which also formally confirmed Dom Kalasih as chief executive, a role he’s held in an interim capacity for 18 months.
Kalasih said that, on top of Bagrie’s appointment, the next 12 months looked very exciting for the organisation.
“I see the effectiveness of sector groups such as livestock, ports, and logging really taking off and more relationships with industry suppliers being formed.
“For Transporting New Zealand, continuing to improve engagement across our membership is vital. We are committed to holding more quality events and leading high-level policy advocacy to benefit the road freight industry.”
