Mark Rees profile

Mark Rees

GM, Core Technology at BNZ

ManagerDecember 16, 2025

It has been a pleasure working with Bradley at Xero and later during his time as Chief Product Officer at Gentrack. Bradley is a capable product leader who consistently turns theory into practical action to solve real business problems. At Xero, he designed the structure and operating model for the product organisation, foundations that have endured for more than a decade. At Gentrack, he quickly diagnosed a set of complex and interrelated business challenges and proposed clear, credible solutions grounded in both customer value and organisational reality. Bradley is a thoughtful, capable leader with strong judgement and a bias toward clarity and execution. I would gladly work with him again and recommend him without hesitation.
