Welcome to Conoscenti
To our knowledge, there are few such networking opportunities for Executive Assistants to Chief Executive Officers in the Auckland region and research has indicated that there is a need for such a forum, particularly as there is generally only one Executive Assistant to the Chief Executive Officer in any company and opportunities to network with colleagues at a similar level are restricted.In February 2004, Conoscenti was founded by three Executive Assistants to Chief Executive Officers; Jacqui Clark formerly from EDS New Zealand, Natalie Hall formerly from TelstraClear, and Julie Gutry formerly from Auckland Regional Council.
The Conoscenti Executive Committee currently comprises:
Natalie Hall: (Co-Founder, Committee Chair;Director; Responsibility - Events portfolio)
Executive Assistant to Chief Executive of TVNZ
Colleen Fitzgerald: (Director;Responsibility Membership Portfolio)
Corporate Support Services Manager & Executive Assistant to Managing Director, Bank of New Zealand.
Anna McGuire: (Responsibility - Educationals portfolio)

Selena Helleur: (Responsibility - Sponsorship and Special Projects portfolios)
Executive Assistant to Chief Executive Officer, Westpac New Zealand Limited.
Vicky Lowe: (Responsibility - Financials & Website Portfolios)

A brief biography on each of the Executive Committee members can be found on the Committee page.
