“We worked with Nicky asking her to support our growth into the UAE. In particular, she helped with initial lead generation and relationship building – she was outstanding in identifying potential target clients, getting us a significant number of introductory meetings (in a very short space of time) and facilitating that early client engagement.” David Watts, Managing Director, Mima
