The head of Scaffolding, Access & Rigging NZ Inc (SARNZ) is to leave her role in October after four years in charge.
Tina Wieczorek will step down as chief executive on 1 October, the trade body confirmed.
SARNZ Board President Paul Cunningham said her departure was being met “with both gratitude and a touch of sadness”.
“Her leadership has been nothing short of transformative,” he said. “Her dedication, drive, and unwavering commitment have not only put SARNZ firmly on the map but have seen us punching well above our weight in influence, visibility, and impact.”
Ms Wieczorek is credited with strengthening ties between the scaffolding, access and rigging sector in New Zealand and the wider construction industry, as well as championing members’ interests and raising professional standards.
The organisation said she had been “a driving force for growth” and “a passionate advocate” for the industry.
Recruitment for her successor will begin shortly.
SARNZ said a fuller tribute to Ms Wieczorek’s tenure, including highlights of her work, would be published in the coming weeks.
