Glyn Lewers for Queenstown Lakes District Mayor 2025

Leading with Purpose. Delivering with Experience.

About me

Queenstown is my home. I’ve lived in the area with my family for nearly 15 years, and I’m proud to raise my two boys in one of the most beautiful and dynamic regions in the world. Weekends often find me on the sidelines of my boys’ hockey games.  While my role as Mayor keeps me busy, I  am deeply involved in our community.

Professionally, I’m a structural engineer with governance and budget experience across large infrastructure and development projects. That background has helped me lead with a practical, solutions-first approach during my time as Mayor.

Over the past three years, we’ve made real progress by securing a Regional Deal, investing in infrastructure, and improving transparency. But there’s more to do. I’m standing again because I believe in finishing what we’ve started. I still have a huge amount of energy to take on the role of Mayor. The opportunity is huge and I am motivated to keep up the momentum on shaping a district that works for everyone.
