Hattie Riwaka

Project Manager | Project Administrator

Hattie first came to Aotearoa in 2002 and, after settling here, was welcomed into te ao Māori through whānau, marae, and community experiences that deepened her understanding of tikanga, Te Reo Māori, and whanaungatanga.

With more than 50 years of experience across a range of industries in Aotearoa and Australia, including over 20 years working alongside iwi in operational, management, and support roles, she brings extensive governance and organisational expertise.

A significant part of her current work has been supporting Te Ātiawa ki te Upoko o te Ika a Māui Pōtiki Trust's Takutai Moana (MACA) kaupapa.  Drawing on previous experience with another Takutai Moana iwi claim, she has contributed to advancing this important mahi through project leadership, support, administration, coordination, and engagement.
