"Pop" music being the "popular" music of the day - it's not a genre. But, even if you tried discounting the likes of Colin Moulding of XTC, Derek Forbes of Simple Minds, Bruce Foxton of The Jam, and Sting of The Police, as they could be seen as coming out of the "punk" generation, you've got the likes of Paul Webb of Talk Talk, Nick Beggs of Kagagoogoo, Les Nemes of Haircut 100, Paul Denman of Sade, Trevor Horn et al working with ABC, Guy Pratt working with Icehouse, John Wilson et al working with Heaven 17. And that's just the stuff I can remember off the top of my head.
