Founder & Chairman, Valont

Andrew Northcott is the founder and chairman of Valont and of its parent group, Wattlestone, a private Australian holding company that acquires businesses to own and operate for the long term. He has spent two decades building and running Australian SMEs. By 2009 he was running a labour-hire business that went on to become one of the largest privately owned labour-hire companies in its market before it was sold, an experience he describes as learning the weight of payroll, compliance and cash flow first hand. Along the way he completed the Owner/President Management program at Harvard Business School. He founded Valont in 2024 to make that kind of business capability accessible to owners who could never justify building it themselves. He writes about ownership, cash, people, systems and the decisions that compound.
