Nia is an expert search partner for our customers in retail and direct to consumer.  She works closely with clients across industries such as retail, e-commerce, hospitality, travel, and leisure, providing a tailored search and selection service. Nia thrives on building strong relationships with both clients and candidates, ensuring a personalized approach that drives success.  Having recruited CEO’s, MD’s and senior director roles in these organisations, Nia is also a member of our board practice.

Committed to innovation in recruitment, Nia embraces new techniques and strategies that enhance her ability to deliver results. She embodies the Page Executive ethos—driven by outcomes while championing progressive search practices—and her deep understanding of client needs keeps them coming back for board-level appointments.

Nia has steadily built her career since joining as a consultant in 2006. With an MA in Ancient Society, her early interest in archaeology—sparked by a love of the Indiana Jones films—took her in a different direction before she found her passion in recruitment. Balancing her career with raising two children, Nia’s journey hasn’t been one of shortcuts, but of dedication and persistence.

Outside of her work, Nia serves as a school governor and advocates for integrating career education more consistently into the curriculum. As a mother of two, she takes a keen interest in future career plans, even if it occasionally embarrasses her kids. In her spare time, Nia enjoys staying active with a mix of fitness classes, from intense boot camps to restorative yoga sessions.

Testimonials

Brief was well understood and calibre of candidates was very good. There was regular contact between Nia and myself and this ensured that our needs were being met. The whole process was efficient and timely and we are very pleased with the appointment we have made.
Debbie Rainbow, Organisation Development Director, Bluestone

Overall a very good service. Nia was proactive throughout even when we paused to have a rethink. She was responsive and was always available to talk things through. In addition she provided a good, balance range of candidates and managed them well through the process. I would definitely work with her again.
Dave Williams, CFO, Mataran

Great empathy from Nia both with the needs of the business and of course mine as the candidate. Kept in touch with me throughout the whole process.
