An independent consultancy that brings practitioner experience to every engagement.
Waypost was founded in 2021 by Robert Kane with a simple premise: organisations achieve better outcomes when the people advising them have actually worked inside the functions they’re consulting on.
Robert Kane’s background spans procurement, supply chain, and ERP implementation at scale, shaped by four years of hands-on delivery on a global SAP S/4HANA program — at the time, the largest go-live ever, with
100+ countries going live simultaneously. His experience includes senior roles at BHP and Orica, working across complex industrial and mining operational environments.
Sharyn Kane joined Waypost to strengthen its finance capability, bringing over two decades of accounting and finance experience, most recently as a Finance Director. Her background includes hands-on leadership of ERP finance implementations within a global industrial products organisation, alongside deep experience across mergers and acquisitions, internal controls, audit readiness, and finance function transformation.
