Set to leave her position at the end of April, Tainui-Hernandez is departing to concentrate on her governance career.
Leadership and contributions
Since joining the central bank in 2020, Tainui-Hernandez has been instrumental in leading the RBNZ’s people, culture, and change initiatives.
RBNZ governor Adrian Orr praised her leadership and vision, highlighting her role as a champion for the organization’s Te Ao Māori and Te Tiriti work, as well as her efforts in promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion.
“She leaves with our very best wishes,” Orr said in a media release, acknowledging her significant contributions to the bank.

In anticipation of Tainui-Hernandez's departure, John McDermott, currently the assistant governor and general manager of digital solutions and security, will serve as acting assistant governor and general manager.
