Wayne Poulton

Wayne is a Partner in our Finance Officer’s practice and brings over 20 years’ experience placing senior finance professionals in listed, privately owned and PE-backed clients across a variety of industries, but with a key focus on technology, consumer, industrials and services organisations. The leadership roles he is responsible for include CFO, Finance Director, Financial Controller, FP&A, Tax, Treasury, Audit, Corporate Development / M&A, and senior Strategy appointments. Wayne also has a track record of working with clients on succession planning initiatives and building out finance and strategy teams.

Before joining Norman Broadbent, Wayne focussed on finance and strategy assignments with a UK-based boutique search firm and prior to this he spent 10 years with an international executive recruitment firm in London and Australia, giving him considerable international search experience across Europe and the Asia Pacific region.

Wayne holds a First-Class Economics degree from the University of Nottingham.

Outside of work, in between spending time with his family and 2 young boys, Wayne enjoys a round of golf with friends and going for a run, when his creaking knees will allow! He is also a long-suffering West Bromwich Albion supporter.
