South Port Appoints Intern Director
South Port NZ Limited is pleased to announce the appointment of Carla Harper as an Intern Director to its Board of Directors for a term of one year as an intern director. The appointee will be an observer only and is not considered to be a “director” under either the Companies Act 1993 or NZX Listing Rule 3.20.
The role has been developed with the aim of building governance capability in Southland and providing opportunities for aspiring directors to advance their governance careers.
South Port’s Board Chair, Rex Chapman said “Carla will be South Port’s first Intern Director appointment. We were delighted to work alongside the Southland Chamber of Commerce to source an alumni candidate from their Leadership Academy. As Southland’s only locally based listed company, this appointment, together with future appointments, will enable appointees to gain valuable governance experience and mentoring.”
