Honouring a long‑standing member of the Bluechip Infotech New Zealand team
After 29 years supporting customers and partners across New Zealand, on 31 March 2026 Paul Leslie will be retiring from Bluechip Infotech New Zealand.
Paul has been a highly respected figure within the New Zealand IT channel for many years, and his contribution to our customers, our vendors, and our business has been significant. Known for his deep product knowledge, calm and considered approach, and strong commitment to customer outcomes, Paul has played an important role in building long‑term relationships and trust across the market.
Paul’s impact has extended well beyond individual products or accounts. He has been a steady presence for customers over many years, offering guidance, insight, and consistency in an industry that continues to evolve rapidly. His contribution to Bluechip Infotech New Zealand’s success — and to the wider reseller community — has been widely recognised.
Multiple vendors owe their success in the New Zealand market to the work Paul did in evangelising their brand amongst our customers – not least Trend Micro, PowerQuest / StorageCraft, LastPass...
This marks the beginning of a well‑earned next chapter for Paul and his wife Chris. On behalf of the entire Bluechip Infotech New Zealand team, we thank Paul for his dedication, professionalism, and the lasting relationships he has built with our customers and partners.
We wish Paul all the very best as he steps toward retirement and thank our customers for their continued trust and support.
