Horowhenua District Council

Kia Ora, We are focused on serving the residents and ratepayers of our district while planning for substantial growth. We strive for excellence across all areas – from customer service to operations to product delivery, and to growing and supporting our people, and their skills. Our District is home to Ngāti Raukawa, Muaūpoko, Rangitāne and Nāgti Apa. Our history is in farming, horticulture and manufacturing. We are a desirable place to raise a family, retire or have a holiday home. Improvements to State Highway One will significantly cut the commute to Wellington – and our District will grow by about a third as a result. Horowhenua District has more than 200 employees across multiple sites and communities. We are proud of our organisation’s diversity with more than 140 nationalities represented across the team. Come with us on our journey from Good to Great. David Clapperton CEO
