Our People

“Kia ora tōku whanau, Ko Haylee tōku ingoa, Ko Ngāpuhi te iwi, Nō Porotī ahau.

I enjoy the diversity that we have here – It really shows how much CentrePort cares about creating a different, encouraging and welcoming environment for all. This is the first place I have had the pleasure of working at that does so much for its people, and makes sure we are all operating safely to the best of our ability.”

“I’m constantly amazed how CentrePort encourages us to break through barriers – it’s a place that walks the talk to gets things done. It’s been a breath of fresh air to work for a company that has the foresight to look beyond the ‘now’, and at what works best for our teams, customers and the environment.”  

Blair Adams, Head of Logistics Development and Commercial

“I’m really proud of how the team always works together to get things done – teamwork is a big thing here at CentrePort”

Steven Griffin – Fitter

“Moving from a healthcare assistant role to CentrePort was done with some apprehension, especially due to the language barriers and varying accents, that made things challenging while learning a new profession. But it is a challenge I am embracing with the support of my fantastic team, and a few deep breaths!”

Lucia Avila – Junior Health and Safety Advisor

“The culture here is really good – the people I work with are understanding and easy to get along with inside and outside of work.

CentrePort offers a lot of opportunities to increase your skills and move up. I started at the bottom as a casual general hand and now I’m a full-time supervisor. I’ve been here 18 years, so I’d say it’s a good place to work!”

Colin Sharrock, Shift Supervisor Container Services
