Since 2018, Miles Hurrell has been the CEO of the Fonterra, New Zealand’s largest company with revenue exceeding $22 billion. This is his first ever long-form interview podcast and you will get to see a side of Miles that has never been shown publically before.

There is plenty in her for the rural community and anyone keen to learn more about Fonterra. Including the late-night emails he often gets from pissed off farmers, and the viral “butter-gate” moment on TV1 news last year and what happens when he gets called to Parliament for meetings with MPs.

But this chat is far more personal than anything Miles has done before:

We discuss his messy upbringing with a resilient solo mum, raising 3 boys on a benefit and moving schools constantly. And the very special relationship he has with his mum now, why he insisted on looking for the good in everyone, how he balances a hectic job with a 12-year-old son and much more.
