Our Committee of Management

I am a lawyer who has worked in the health and commercial sector for many years. I am very excited to have been given the opportunity of chairing the Committee of management of The Wilson Home Trust. At this crucial time I hope to work with beneficiaries across the upper North Island and other stakeholders, to enable the Trust to attain its potential and the vision of the Wilson family.

John is Auckland born and raised and says he has very fond memories of childhood stays at Wilson Home.

“Its an honour to be on the Committee of management of this great organisation. I hope that during my time here I can help strengthen the positive contribution that is made to the lives of children and young people with physical disabilities and their families.”

John is the owner and editor of Without Limits Magazine, which focuses on disability issues.

He has served on many boards and committees within the disability sector.

Mark has Communications, Human Resources and Commercial experience in large corporates. He has governance experience in corporate charities, superannuation schemes, and is a trustee and former Chair of the Rett NZ Charitable Trust. Mark also has a daughter with special needs.

“I am very pleased to join the Wilson Home Trust and contribute to its future direction and support the great work done by so many in caring for children and young people and their families”

Jake is an Investment Banking professional and qualified Chartered Accountant who has worked as an advisor for Ernst and Young and Bancorp Merchant Bankers. I am honoured to serve as a member of the Committee of management and look forward to contributing to the future of this unique and special organisation. I am excited to meet the many stakeholders and beneficiaries over the coming months to learn more about their experiences and to ensure the needs of our beneficiaries are being met.

Jake loves the beach and lives with his wife Sarah and young son, in Takapuna.
