Bio
Julian Sauer
After meeting Nick in 2020 and collaborating on a quite unusual project, I have since had the pleasure to work with him across a bandwidth of initiatives. Every single time - regardless of the brief - Nick continues to deliver extraordinary ideas, much needed out-of-the-box thinking, excellent workflows and last but certainly not least an incredible inspiring work atmosphere. His client‘s needs are always in focus and the bigger picture on his radar, making him a perfect partner, trusted colleague and respected business leader. All of this paired with a very empathetic style off personal intercommunication, as I value Nick’s honesty, authenticity and above all kindness highly. Here’s to many more successful adventures to come Nick - I am most definitely looking forward to it.

I worked with Nick on a day-to-day basis at BetVIctor for over five years and found him to be an outstanding colleague friend and confidant. Nothing was too much trouble, he always found time to discuss any potential work problems and come to a quick and well thought out solution. He has the ability to adapt quickly to pressure situations and plan accordingly. I could not recommend Nick more highly it is as simple as that. I was very proud to work with Nick and prouder still to call him a friend. He would be a great asset to any organisation.
