Jordan
Kairataki - Paiheretia te Muka Tangata
Joined the team June 2023.
Jordan was asked what he most enjoys about his role? His response was, "the opportunity to work side by side with whānau to make dreams become a reality; navigating together to build a prosperous and sustainable future in a whānau centred way".
Outside of mahi Jordan and his whānau run Kahungunu Poitūkohu, a programme which helps rangatahi develop their capabilities, and utilises basketball to connect and inspire whānau.
Jordan's greatest achievement in life is being a husband, parent and grandparent over a 25-year life span.
In Jordan's role they provide support as a hand-up, not a hand-out, in the hope of creating Mana Motuhake for their whānau and not dependency.
