New deputy chair announced
Vector today announces the appointment of current independent non-executive director Dame
Paula Rebstock as deputy chair of Vector and interim chair of Vector’s audit committee.

Dame Paula Rebstock joined the Vector board in April 2019 and is a leading Auckland-based
economist and company director, who was made a Dame Companion of the New Zealand
Order of Merit in 2015.

Vector’s chair, Jonathan Mason, said: “It is fantastic to have someone of Dame Paula’s
experience as deputy. She has an impressive background in governance, including as chair
of ACC, Kiwi Group Holdings, NHC and Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei Whai Māia and is a former chair
of the New Zealand Commerce Commission. Dame Paula also has directorships on the boards
of leading companies including Auckland Transport and SeaLink.”

creating a new energy future for all of New Zealand.”
