About Paul Birkett:

Raised in Dublin Ireland, Paul started his career at Procter & Gamble and spent 18 years at PepsiCo where he served as Vice President and General Manager for the $3Bn Non-Carbonated Beverage portfolio and the New York Market Unit. 


The purchase of a non-performing mortgage as “an experiment” became the cornerstone of a new career. Within 2 years, Paul liquidated a significant rental portfolio, left corporate life and launched Automation Finance to help investors automate their future finances.  As CEO, Paul oversees Automation Finance’s management of $200 Million of distressed mortgages.
