About Us

At Fountain Consulting (formerly Martindale Consulting), we are led by Debbie Martindale, bringing together over 20 years of collective experience in executive, senior, and startup leadership roles within New Zealand's tertiary and vocational training sector.

Our journey has encompassed collaboration with a diverse array of institutions, including Polytechnics, Institutes of Technology, Industry Training Organisations (ITO’s), and the dynamic landscape of Workbased Learning (WBLs) and Workforce Development Councils (WDCs), as well as both government-funded and commercially supported Private Training Providers.

With a deep reservoir of experience and insights gathered through navigating times of change and uncertainty, we specialise in assisting providers to adapt, flex, and continuously improve. We are committed to helping institutions develop in ways that embrace their unique points of difference, fostering growth and sustainability.

Moreover, collaboration lies at the heart of our approach. We actively seek partnerships with other specialist organisations to ensure our clients receive the very best guidance and support tailored to their specific needs and goals.
