Rob Nagai
Vice President
Provincial Government & Regional Affairs 
Rob Nagai has been active in municipal, provincial and federal politics for over two decades holding different positions within the BC NDP. He has built relationships across the political spectrum from municipal councillors to MLAs throughout British Columbia. In 2011, Rob was hired by the BC NDP, to undertake fundraising within the business community. In that role, he worked tirelessly to build a culture of corporate gifts - almost from ground zero.
He recruited, trained and supervised a team to work contributions from the corporate sector where he worked closely with the support of Party Leaders, Carole James, Adrian Dix and John Horgan, and many BCNDP MLAs and candidates - centrally raising over $7 Million. 


In 2018, he joined Bluestone Government Relations and found success, working closely with clients from numerous industries in helping them build their government relations programs in Victoria. Rob has volunteered for numerous MLAs, City of Burnaby’s Committees, the United Way Workplace campaign, and Cliff Avenue United FC coaching his son’s soccer team. 

Rob lives in North Burnaby with his wife Heather and his son Rory.
