Peter has been ‘walking beside’ church leaders since 2012 and leads the team at Partners in Ministry as the Chief Executive. Peter has a background in organisational leadership, people management, marketing and training having worked for over two decades in the pharmaceutical industry in Australia, New Zealand and across Southeast Asia. He finished up in pharmaceuticals as the leader of Australia and New Zealand for Inova Pharmaceuticals. Since then he has dedicated himself to supporting church leaders to lead well and in spiritual and personal health. Peter currently serves as a director on the Boards of Partners in Ministry, Sustainable Development Group, and Magnify Research (National Church Life Survey).
Peter is a trained church consultant, leadership coach, pastoral supervisor and expert trainer. His undergraduate degree was in Science and since then he has competed a Graduate Certificate in Professional Supervision (Pastoral), a Graduate Diploma in Management and is a Graduate Member of the Australian Institute of Company Directors.
After twelve years working with church leaders and churches across a range of denominations and countries Peter is very grateful to God for the development of Partners in Ministry and the faithful and capable team that God has brought together.
He has a huge desire to see the church of Jesus Christ flourish and to see the leaders God has appointed to be healthy and effective in their leadership. He believes that leading a church is one of the most challenging roles - with too many church leaders suffering from burnout and imposter syndrome. Peter is committed to seeing more and more church leaders flourish under God. This is what Partners in Ministry is all about!
