After Over 2 Years at OneRoyal, Dominic Poynter Departs as CCO
Dominic Poynter has stepped down as Chief Commercial Officer at retail FX and CFDs broker OneRoyal. He confirmed the exit on LinkedIn and has not yet announced his next move.
Dominic Poynter has left his role as Chief Commercial Officer at retail FX and CFDs broker OneRoyal, ending a tenure of more than two years at the firm. Poynter confirmed the departure in a LinkedIn post, writing: "After more than 15 years building and growing FX/CFD businesses, I'm available for my next commercial challenge."
Poynter joined OneRoyal as Head of Marketing and held that position for more than a year in Limassol, Cyprus, before being promoted to CCO in 2025. His exit comes as OneRoyal continues to expand across the MENA region. In May 2025, the broker opened a registered office in Muscat, Oman, and earlier that year appointed former Uruguay international Diego Forlán as a brand ambassador, following a partnership with Acuity Trading for AI-powered analytics.
Career background
Before joining OneRoyal, Poynter spent about a year as Chief Marketing Officer at HYCM in Limassol, where his work centred on go-to-market and digital strategies. He previously served two years as Marketing Director at Axiory in Cyprus, overseeing marketing operations across international markets including Africa, MENA/GCC and Southeast Asia. His responsibilities there included budget planning, team building, Cyprus operations and trading platform management.
Poynter also spent two years as Head of Marketing at ATFX Global Markets, formerly Positiva Markets, in Limassol. In that role, he worked on global marketing strategies and the launch of the retail brand following its acquisition, helping build marketing infrastructure covering websites, CRM systems and affiliate programmes.
Earlier in his career, he spent three years at easyMarkets as Director of Marketing Operations in Limassol. Poynter has not publicly disclosed his next position, leaving his next career move open as he remains active in the retail FX and CFDs space.
