Nic joined Oxford HR in 2023, bringing over two decades of leadership experience in the not-for-profit sector. Her background spans Charity Management, Strategic Leadership, and Fundraising Development, with a focus on health, disability, and social impact organisations. At Oxford HR, Nic specialises in executive search within the health, humanitarian, and education sectors. She is particularly passionate about international development, disability rights, and inclusive leadership, and has successfully led searches for CEO, Director and Co-Chair/board roles, for Oxfam, IPPF, United for Global Mental Health, The Circle, RSPB, Tinnitus UK, and ADD International to name a few.
In her career, she achieved the highest accolade in the industry ‘Fundraiser of the Year’ by the IOF, for her Leadership, Strategy, Vision and contribution to the sector’s growth, working with major charities like BBC Children in Need, Cancer Research UK & Crisis, to smaller, high-impact NGOs such as INAS, a global Paralympic body supporting athletes with intellectual disabilities. While at The Prince’s Trust, Nic received a personal high achievers’ commendation from Her Late Majesty, for her exceptional contributions to youth volunteering and personal development programmes.
Beginning her professional journey as a teacher, travelling and volunteering extensively across diverse communities, these formative experiences deeply shaped her global outlook and reinforced her commitment to equity, inclusion, and sustainable impact. Her passion lies in supporting purpose-driven organisations to identify and recruit exceptional leaders—individuals who not only drive organisational success but also champion positive change for both people and planet.
