Rireana Kirkwood

Public Service Rep

Kia ora e te whānau, Ko Rireana tōku ingoa.

I am very excited to be your Rangatahi Representative for the Public Service Sector. I live in Christchurch and work for the Māori Land Court, Ministry of Justice. I have been a worksite delegate since 2016 for the Māori Land Court in Te Waipounamu and a Rūnanga delegate since early 2018 for the Ministry of Justice, covering the South Island.

I am passionate about what our challenges are as Māori Youth in the workplace and how we can be developed as young leaders for the future. I have dreams that Māori will be highly represented in our senior leadership and in decisions that impact our whānau, hapū & iwi. I am proud to be Māori and am excited to start our haerenga towards making a better working lie for Māori.

I am always happy to kōrero.
