Westpac Waikato Business Awards Emerging Leader of the Year 2019 – Kingsley Fink 

At the recent Westpac Waikato Business Awards Tristram Marine’s General Manager Kingsley Fink was awarded ‘Emerging Leader of the Year 2019’ in recognition of his excellent leadership and unsurpassed dedication to both the Tristram clients and the internal team. This award is the culmination of the growth Kingsley has made in understanding what motivates himself as a leader and how this aligns with the purpose of Tristram Marine, both of which are centred around getting families on the water to create quality memories on-board quality Tristram boats.  

On the awards night, Kingsley credited this award to the people of Tristram Marine, the Tristram owners and team alike, who drive him to constantly challenge himself and those around him to build on the company’s reputation as the pinnacle of premium for both craft and service. Just 12 years into his career, Kingsley is such a positive and motivated force within the company and there is no doubt that under his direction Tristram Marine will continue to be an industry leader for many years to come.
