Alex Baker

I love Wellington, it’s an amazing place to live. I’m raising a family here and in 30 years will still be working and living here. I am committed to Wellington.

I’m a qualified accountant with public and private sector leadership experience in financial management, sustainability and city infrastructure. These are critical areas of expertise for any leader seeking to resolve the challenges facing Wellington.

As Councillor, I will support Council to deliver the positive, sustainable outcomes Wellingtonians want, while applying the strong, pragmatic financial management we need. I have the skills, energy and motivation to make sure Wellington is a place people want to, and can afford, to live.

My priorities: a council that acts to make Wellington more affordable, delivers effective transport infrastructure, supports business and job growth, and is environmentally responsible.

Choose a Councillor focused on working with Wellingtonians to keep building our vibrant, inclusive and innovative city.

He rawe ki ahau a Te Whanagui-a-Tara, he wāhi noho mīharo. Kei te whakapakeke ahau i tōku whānau i konei, ā, hei te 30 tau, ka mahi tonu, ka noho tonu ahau ki konei. E ū ana ahau ki a Pōneke.

He kaikaute whai tohu ahau. He wheako ārahi ōku i te rāngai tūmatanui me te rāngai tūmataiti anō hoki, i ngā whakahaere kaute, te whakaukatanga, me te tūāhanga ā-tāone.

I taku tū hei Kaikaunihera, ka tautoko ahau i te Kaunihera ki te tuku i ngā hua pai, toitū anō hoki e pīrangitia ana e ngā tāngata o Te Whanganui-a-Tara. Waihoki, ka whakamahi i ngā whakahaere ā-kaute kaha, raungāwari anō hoki e matea ana.

Tohua he Kaikaunihera e aro ana ki te mahi tahi ki ngā tāngata o Te Whanganui-a-Tara ki te hanga tonu i tō tātou tāone muramura, kauawhi, auaha anō hoki.
