Meet the Team – Nicole Bruce, CEO
Get to know the team behind the dream! Nicole is our head honcho here at Hoxton (say that 10 times faster!). We’d love for you to get to know Nicole and the rest of our team as part of our ‘Meet the Team’ segment.
Tell us your name, role and how long you’ve been here at Hoxton
Nicole Bruce, CEO. I have been at Hoxton for 21 years.
Tell us a bit about yourself (Hobbies, interests, background etc)
In my spare time I enjoy DIY projects, camping, travelling, reading, Sudoku’s, playing tennis or squash (I am not very good at either) and in the winter months I love watching my beloved Canberra Raiders.
Tell us a bit about your previous experience before coming to Hoxton (skillset, job experience etc)
My past experience has predominately been in the disability sector where I had worked across various settings including accommodation, respite care, day programs and life skill settings.
Why Hoxton?
I was really interested in moving into vocational disability services. I enjoyed seeing the role employment played in helping people to live their best lives.
How have you found your time at Hoxton?
I have thoroughly enjoyed my time at Hoxton and all the employees I have gotten to know. It seems that both Hoxton and myself have lived many lives in my 21 years when I look back at all the changes and new opportunities that have come along. I look forward to what other evolutions the future will bring and the types of new employment options we can create. I think we are now moving into an exciting phase where we are seeing our employees career aspirations really drive the future direction of our businesses.
What’s your fav ice cream flavour/dessert?
I am not fussy with my sweets as I like most desserts, but if I had to narrow it down I would say carrot cake or cheesecake.
Is there anything else you’d like to share? An interesting fact about yourself, a story, anything!
I think that’s enough about me.
