Managing Director, ForthCo

HOW TO APPLY

He’s met Muhammad Ali, had breakfast with Madonna, and sold hurricane-damaged surfboards in Miami.

Clearly, Phil Veal’s journey from engineering degree to multi-national CEO has been anything but linear. From ‘builder of things’ to ‘builder of businesses’, it was Phil’s broad skill base, questioning nature and relentless perseverance that saw his path unfold in unexpected yet incredible ways.

“If you have curiosity, hustle and a good set of skills in your toolbox, the path will open up – and it will be as squiggly as all hell!”

Phil is currently Managing Director of ForthCo and is also on the board for New Zealand Air Ambulance and Natural Habitats Landscapes.
