Our Board

Since joining Tranzit in 1972 as a diesel mechanic and working across all facets of the family business, Paul acquired Tranzit in 1980 at just 29. His strong leadership skills, entrepreneurial and commercial acumen have enabled him to significantly grow the business and since 2014 he has worked closely with brother Keven Snelgrove to pioneer electric bus technology in New Zealand. Paul is committed to the future and longevity of the business, driving strategy and growth while outside of work, he is a well-respected leader serving on several boards as well as being a dedicated Rotarian.

Keven oversees the management, allocation, procurement, maintenance, and transport delivery for Tranzit Group’s fleet of over 3000 passenger and lease vehicles. Driven by operational challenges, he is dedicated to delivering results. He successfully manages key stakeholder relationships across council, government and private sectors and is experienced in generating new business. Keven’s collaborative style has brought key industry members together with the long term view to improve transport operations. Over the last decade, Keven has led the introduction of electric bus technology into New Zealand, breaking down barriers and paving the way for decarbonisation of the public transport bus fleet.

In the late 1990s Renee Snelgrove became New Zealand’s youngest female passenger coach driver at the age of 18, while driving for Tranzit Group. Now, more three decades on, Renee is part of the fourth generation of family members driving the company forward. Her extensive background in governance, law and human resources combined with operational experience places her in a unique position. Renee also sits on the Bus and Coach Association Board as the Large Operator Representative.

Chris then joined Colliers as GM and took this business through significant transformation before establishing Greenhouse Business Advisory, where he works with business owners to get them to where they want to be by developing and building successful management teams.
