Scott Poland

Chief Financial Officer

As Chief Financial Officer for Hackman Capital, Scott Poland oversees the financial and accounting functions for Hackman Capital and the Hackman Capital Investment Entities.

Scott joined Hackman Capital in 2003 shortly after the company closed a financial restructuring transaction for Midlink Business Park, the former General Motors Stamping Plant in Kalamazoo, MI. He was brought onboard to grow the financial infrastructure of Hackman Capital and to structure the accounting department so as to handle the financials for additional and large-scale transactions. Since joining the company, Hackman Capital has quadrupled the size of its business and, directly under Scott's leadership, the accounting department has tripled in size and has taken on responsibility for financial reporting to investors, institutional lenders and publically held REITs.

Prior to joining Hackman Capital, Scott was the Chief Financial Officer for Modern VideoFilm, Inc., a leading Hollywood post-production facility. While there, he assisted the president and other senior executives in strategic business acquisitions, capital asset acquisitions and maintaining financing relationships.

Scott received his CPA certification while working for the Kansas City office of Touche-Ross and Co. He then moved to California where he spent nearly 20 years working in the Entertainment Industry. Scott spent several years in the Internal Audit division of CBS, Inc. where he was responsible for conducting operational and financial audits of CBS, Inc. units throughout the western U.S., Asia and the South Pacific. Scott then joined Lorimar-Telepictures where he was the Vice-President of Financial Reporting for Lorimar's Television Distribution Group. In that capacity, Scott was the key executive coordinating financial reporting efforts of the Production, Budgeting, and Corporate reporting divisions for Lorimar Television.

Scott is a graduate of Kansas State University where he received his B.S. in Business Administration and Accounting.
