What Nicole MacFarlane's clients say

It’s been such a relief to have Nicole aboard. She is very efficient and clearly highly competent. Her years of experience are quite apparent in her judgment and work product. It is so nice to have a safe pair of hands and she has settled in very quickly, easily navigating her way around the business – not always easy in a bank.

Larissa Vaughan

GM Regulatory Affairs & General Counsel, TSB Bank
Nicole’s fitting in really well and has cut through some ‘noisy’ issues with her great pragmatism and calm approach.

Name provided upon request

Chief Legal Officer, Private Sector Entity
We appreciate Nicole’s incredible expertise at this time when we find ourselves short of this skillset in our business, while we undertake a recruitment process.

Vicki Caisley

Chief People & Strategy, Southern Cross
Nicole stepped into the Company Secretary role with ease and was able to navigate significant complexity in the organisation structure and competing demands independently. Nicole quickly grew the trust of senior managers and her team in a time of change.
