Tony Pfeiffer CRG member and Upper Clutha Community Leader

Tony has more than 35 years’ business experience and currently he is General Manager of Wastebusters based in Wānaka, where he manages a large team of over 60 full and part time staff working across the Wanaka and Alexandra Zero Waste education and resource recovery sites.  Prior to joining Wastebusters, Tony was Managing Director and CEO for Enova Community Energy based in New South Wales, Australia.  He is an experienced Director and Chief Executive with considerable experience within the utilities sector in Australia across NSW, Queensland and South Australia. Tony has been a board member of the Australian Power Institute and he has previously been a board member and Chair of Green Cross Australia (a resilience and sustainability organisation).

"Having spent over 20 years involved in organisations looking to improve environmental and community resilience and sustainability outcomes, the chance to work with the QLDC’s Climate reference group is a great opportunity to further my work in this area.  In addition, as I’m currently working in the Zero Waste space, the work of the CRG aligns with the goals and aspirations of my organisation and my local community."
