Kirsten Newton - Advanced Plumbing

Kirsten has over 20 years of general business experience in industry ranging from sawmilling, timber processing, building product importing, meat processing and most recently within a trades business.  Kirsten is very system focussed and enjoys the challenge of helping people learn and improve their business systems.

Along with a bent towards general management, Kirsten has experience in both human resources management and health and safety management.  Making sure people are safe, well trained and engaged is an important part of every business and she loves to help people understand how this relates to their operation.

Kirsten has been based in the Hawke’s Bay for 15 years.  The move here was a specifically considered lifestyle choice that has provided her family with a beautiful and central district to call home.
