Trust House management changes

Trust House Board of Directors Chair Mena Antonio has announced that Chief Executive Charles Kaka has stepped down from his role with Trust House.

“Charles has decided that the time is right for him to explore other opportunities. He joined Trust House in 2020 and we are grateful to Charles for the past two and half years’ service as our CEO.

“In that time, Charles has connected with an extensive range of community groups and leaders. He has had a strong focus on asset management planning and ensured the organisation’s Te Whare Tapa Whā wellbeing model was adopted during a very challenging time.

“His expertise in asset management has meant that Trust House now has a transformative asset management plan and housing improvement programme. Work has already started on renovating our existing housing and new social housing is under construction.

“Also under Charles’ leadership, the Ka Ora Ka Ako free school lunch program has grown to now feed lunch to more than 3500 tamariki a day throughout the Trust House rohe.

“The Board thanks Charles for his dedication and commitment to Trust House and wishes him well for the future.”
