City Rail Link Ltd has named<\/a> its chief financial officer, Patrick Brockie, as the new chief executive to lead the country\u2019s largest transport infrastructure project to completion.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Brockie, a chartered accountant, joined CRL<\/a> Ltd five years ago.\u00a0 He replaces Dr Sean Sweeney who is leaving in September.<\/p>\n

City Rail Link Ltd\u2019s Chair, John Bridgman, says Brockie\u2019s appointment comes at an important time\u00a0 for CRL.<\/p>\n

\u201cPatrick\u2019s knowledge of CRL\u2019s complexities and challenges are underscored by his passion for the project,” he said.<\/p>\n

“Critically, his appointment provides seamless continuity that will ensure the momentum we have right across the project is maintained as we drive towards planned practical completion late next year.”<\/p>\n

Brockie\u2019s career is extensive. He has held senior management positions in the banking sector and spent significant time working in Asia and the United Kingdom.<\/p>\n

Brockie also has significant infrastructure experience including working on City Rail Link since 2019. He started his career with NZ Railways Corporation, is a former Chair of Infrastructure New Zealand, and a trustee for World Vision New Zealand.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am privileged to take charge of a project that is changing Auckland,\u201d Brockie said.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur finish line gets closer by the day and our priority is to deliver a world class railway to help our vibrant city continue to grow and prosper \u2013 and we are committed to doing that as effectively and efficiently as possible.”<\/p>\n

Dr Sweeney is leaving for Ireland to head construction of a metro rail tunnel project in Dublin.<\/p>\n
