I worked with Nicole at Seeing Machines, she was a great manager and leader of the People & Culture team. She is careful and kind, this is backed up by her quick wit, intelligence and humour. Nicole empowers her team members to make their own decisions, is always approachable and enables her team to be successful. Nicole would be an asset to any company wanting to develop and maintain the best in its people and culture, I would welcome the opportunity to work with her again.
