The New Zealand Ready Mixed Concrete Association has appointed Jon Hambling as President. Jon has been involved with the NZRMCA at regional and council level for nearly 10 years, and will be responsible for leading the organisation that represents the interests of ready mixed concrete producers in New Zealand.
“I am committed to advancing the ready mixed concrete industry through an ongoing programme of promotion and development,” Jon says. “The importance of the NZRMCA in matters of quality control, training and standards development cannot be overstated, and I consider it a privilege to head the organisation in its endeavours.”
Outgoing President Graham Payne said the NZRMCA is delighted with the appointment. “The NZRMCA is extremely pleased that Jon will lead the organisation into the future,” Graham says. “He has tremendous knowledge of the challenges and opportunities that face our industry, as well as great experience in industry representation.”
Jon has worked for Fletcher Concrete/Firth Industries for 18 years in various positions, including South Island Chief Operating Officer and National Technical Engineer.
