Kelvin Wood
CFO
Kelvin Wood began working for the Tasmanian Conference on March 18, 2024. He was previously serving as business manager for Adventist schools on the mid-North coast of NSW. With a diverse professional background, Mr Wood’s experience in finance began with positions such as accountant, payroll supervisor, and office manager. His journey in the education sector started in 2009 at a Christian school in Victoria, where he initially worked as a senior finance officer and office manager before taking on the role of business manager from 2014 to 2020. Mr Wood commented on the new challenge of serving the Church Company for the first time. “The position is not one I thought I would ever be asked to do, [but] I have always let God lead and [I] go where He thinks I can help. As I say when I am asked how long I will be at a place: I am here for a season, and where I go is up to God.” Mr Wood is married to Pam, and they have five children and seven grandchildren. One of their sons, Josh, is currently serving as the Conference Trust Services director.
