Mr McLeod replaces Murray Horn who will take up a new position within the ANZ Banking Group in Australia in December.
An accountant by trade, Mr McLeod made the headlines last year when he chaired the Government's Tax Review 2001. A first draft of the review created waves when it recommended, among other changes, a tax on owner-occupied housing.
Mr McLeod is chairman of accounting firm Ernst & Young and a commissioner of the Treaty of Waitangi Fisheries Commission.
He paid tribute today to Dr Horn, who has chaired the Roundtable since August last year.
"As chairman, Dr Horn focused on the importance of New Zealanders' attitudes towards business, success and economic growth.
"He emphasised that if New Zealanders are to enjoy an increase in living standards, our economic policies must be superior to the OECD average ," Mr McLeod said.
