Meet the Team

Get to know our wonderful people.

Craig McKenzie: Manager

Craig is the Manager of Compass Seminars. Originally from a background in Child and Adolescent social work, Craig now oversees the general operations of Compass and his key areas of responsibility are trainer recruitment and relationship management, event hosting, and the development of new business.

Craig always prefers talking (about anything) to working so you can be sure he will be up for a chat if you call the office.

He is famous (in his own mind) for his own unique rendition of Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody - not that this talent is always appreciated by others in the Compass office.

Craig can be reached at craig@compass.ac.nz

Casey Adlam: Events Administrator

Casey is our 'details focused' administrator. She joined the Compass team in early 2023 and if you call or email the office she is most likely who you will be talking to.

Casey loves to travel and enjoys the adventure of immersing herself in new cultures. In her spare time you will probably find her at the beach with her family (which includes Dexter the Dashund).

She has an number of guilty pleasures, which include Lindt chocolate, Poutine (chips, cheese and gravy), or a good bottle of bubbles (although not normally all at once).

Casey can be contacted by emailing office@compass.ac.nz

Cassie Billing: Event Coordination

Cassie joined the Compass team in 2023 and looks after the organisational logistics and planning to do with the delivery of our seminar programme.

She has an extensive background in coordinating a wide range of events (and is also her family's 'go to' organiser for birthdays, Christmas, and holidays).

In her spare time, Cassie enjoys getting creative, particularly in relation to cooking new food. She hosts a 'stonking' dinner party which everyone enjoys (at least until its time to do the dishes)

Cassie can be reached on admin@compass.ac.nz

Rosalind McKenzie: Operations

Ros is one of the Directors of Compass Seminars, and also the office financial wizard. She has an honor's degree in Social Work, and a professional background in Child and Adolescent mental health. Drawing on her past Clinical practice as an adolescent clinician, Ros also plays a crucial role in refining the choices made around our seminar programme, ensuring that these are aligned with the latest best practice.

She's the office fashionista at Compass., when she's not curating chic vibes in the workplace, she's off walking amongst nature, podcast in hand, plotting her next overseas travel adventure. 

A proud dog mum to the dynamic Labrador duo Max and Leo, she also has a couple of big human kids too, but let's be real, it's the dogs who get all the attention now.

Ros can be reached at ros@compass.ac.nz
