Nick began his career at Southbank Centre where he managed the marketing for a number of major festivals and the Gigs & Contemporary Music programme, before joining The Guardian.

At The Guardian he was the marketing lead for the launch of Guardian Membership, a ground-breaking scheme which transformed the business’ approach to reader revenue. As well defining the first positioning around supporting The Guardian, Nick was also part of the team that launched a new one-off financial contributions product.
