About the Ambassador Programme:

The IIA NZ Ambassador Programme is designed to strengthen our national network and enhance engagement with members across Aotearoa and the Pacific Islands. Ambassadors serve as key regional representatives and advocates for the internal audit profession, helping to:

Facilitate communication between members and the National Office
Organise and promote IIA NZ events
Share resources and thought leadership
Foster a sense of community within the profession

Our Ambassadors play a vital role in connecting members, supporting knowledge sharing, and promoting the value of internal auditing at a regional level.
