Background

About David Pointon

I have over 20 years of experience leading national operations, revenue delivery, and enterprise technology in New Zealand. At Sharp New Zealand, I run the division responsible for over 85% of national revenue and serve on the Governance Committee, supervising compliance, risk frameworks, and long-term strategic planning. I have grown new service lines, most notably the ICT sector, from genesis to multimillion-dollar recurring income streams. My strategy is based on quantifiable performance objectives and operational alignment. I've led reorganizations throughout uncertain times, ensuring staff stability while redesigning the firm for future development. I have regularly achieved expectations by integrating sales and delivery teams to ensure exact solution execution and customer alignment, resulting in long-term relationships and enterprise contracts. I focus on team development and competence growth. I mentored senior executives via executive training, blog-based peer learning, and coaching programs, resulting in numerous mentees progressing to C-level positions. As a public speaker, I provide presentations at national conferences and internal roadshows, providing clarity on corporate strategy, growth strategies, and technology adoption.
