The new chair has held senior roles including chairman of SkyCity, deputy chair of Sovereign Assurance Company, director of Mighty River Power and Air New Zealand, a trustee of World Vision New Zealand, CEO of Brierley New Zealand and Solid Energy, and CFO of Lend Lease in Australia.
The change at the top of the Kiwibank board will take place on November 28.
Kiwi Group Holdings, the ultimate holding company for the state-owned bank, confirmed the changes today.
KGH board chair Jackie Lloyd said: "Jon has considerable governance and commercial expertise, including as Deputy Chair of ASB Bank, where he was on the board for 12 years, and 17 years of international banking experience with VisionFund International – the microfinance subsidiary of World Vision International – where he has just retired as chair."
Hartley added: "“Kiwibank is a vital and significant part of the New Zealand banking system. I look forward to working with the board, management and owners in the strategy implementation and to see the bank continue to realise its full potential.”
