Jamie Learmont

As an Associate Director at Waypoint Partners, I advise our UK, Europe and Middle East based clients. I collaborate and challenge on their business strategy and steer them through regular board advisory. I work closely with business owners and other executive level leaders to drive improved commercial performance, consulting on operational process optimisation, management information and insight, and value led sales enablement. I have 20+ years’ experience in finance and operations in creative, marketing and technology focused businesses, and bring a specialism in performance marketing agencies. Prior to Waypoint I was Head of Finance & Operations at Queryclick during a period of growth from Net Revenue of £1.5m-£4.2m. When not at work, I spend as much time as possible with my wife, two children and cocker spaniel, and the remainder trying to maintain strength and fitness through Xfit.
