The Fundraising Everywhere Podcast Kiah Nicolas: From Beauty Therapist to Head of Fundraising
Welcome to the Fundraising Everywhere Podcast, today, we’ve got something a little bit different for you.
To celebrate our upcoming recruitment and careers conference coming up on Thursday 20th November, we’ve decided to hand the mic over to our guest host Rory White in this special series of episodes called 'It Started On The Street'.
Rory will be chatting to some brilliant leaders in the charity sector and beyond about their journeys since they started their careers as dialogue fundraisers.
"I first met Kiah Nicolas when she joined the British Red Cross — one of our Flow Caritas clients at the time. She started her career as a street fundraiser and quickly stood out, rising through the ranks with incredible speed.
During her time there, she took on major responsibilities: leading and managing teams, overseeing forecasting, budgeting, and everything that comes with running a high-performing fundraising operation. Now, just a few years later, Kiah is Head of Fundraising at the PEP Foundation — a testament to her drive, her talent, and her work ethic.
Join us as we talk about her journey, the lessons she learned on the street, and how those early experiences shaped the brilliant fundraiser she is today."
