Group CFO, Cint Group AB
Niels Boon walked into Cint as its sixth CFO in four years inheriting falling revenue, a stalled $1.1bn acquisition integration, debt pressure, and a finance team at rock bottom and turned it into a cash-generative, deleveraged business with a 60%-oversubscribed rights issue within two years. A McKinsey-trained operator with executive stints at Zalando, Ada Health, and Zenjob, he's one of Europe's most compelling examples of what a high-EQ CFO can do in the toughest of turnaround situations.
