Wayne de Wet

CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER


Wayne is a qualified Chartered Accountant and holds an Honours in Accounting Science Degree.

He has over 36 years experience within the financial and commercial sphere within various industries, including tourism and hospitality, gaming, tobacco and the public sector.

Wayne is responsible for, amongst other duties, developing and implementing the CTICC’s financial strategies, strategic leadership of finance and supply chain management, and growth and resource management within the Finance department.

Wayne believes in facing challenges head-on, is driven by results, and believes that before implementing any new changes you must fully immerse yourself within your environment.

One of his key strengths is orientating himself intimately with all the various disciplines within the organisation in order to effectively manage from a finance perspective.

With every new position comes new challenges and problem-solving is no stranger to De Wet.

“I gather as much information on the issue, then analyse and consult allowing me to make a decision using my experience and knowledge,” he adds.

De Wet is married and a father of two. When he is not in office, he enjoys golfing, social sports, skydiving, reading and travelling. He also sits on the Board of Trustees of a local Waldorf school, lists Albert Einstein as the person he most admires, and his parents as the biggest influence on his working life.

“They always stood by me early on in my career and allowed me to carve out my own path with their full support.”
