WHY CHOOSE NIKKI?
What sets Nikki apart is her warm, Northern, down-to-earth style that brings clarity, personality and connection to even the most complex topics.
She’s not just a Presenter, she’s someone who understands people, making her the perfect bridge between your brand and your audience. Authentic and relatable, Nikki creates an atmosphere where every event feels inclusive, engaging and memorable.
Whether it’s a Tech Summit, a Car Launch or a Sports Event, Nikki blends professionalism with personability to elevate every moment on stage.
She’s the safe, sharp and seriously fun pair of hands you want when it matters most.
NOT YOUR TYPICAL MC
Nikki started in live TV in her hometown of Manchester, then became Strictly Come Dancing’s first and only backstage presenter - a role The BBC created specifically for her - due to her ability to connect with people and tease out the stories that mattered.
She was also the go-to “Gadget Girl” on BBC’s Something for the Weekend.
Twenty years later, she’s the MC that premium brands choose for Tech, Automotive and Entertainment Events - or industries that need someone who can talk the talk but, more importantly, bring personality to spaces where it often gets lost.

I’ve booked Nikki as an Emcee for multiple events across different industries and locations, and she’s an absolute dream to work with. Yes, she’s fantastic on stage - she gets the best out of the audience and guests, brings the energy, and makes every event engaging. But what really stands out is how easy she makes the whole process, from the very first planning call to delivery and wrap up. It's a full service of expertise from start to finish.

Mia Butler - Unstoppable Sales Mentor & former booking agent.
Nikki has been our Make UK Manufacturing Awards compere for many years and brings energy and enthusiasm alongside effortless professionalism to our regional dinners.
She is warm, funny and makes all our guests, whether on stage winning an award or enjoying an evening with colleagues, feel that they are part of something special and celebratory.
A key strength of Nikki’s is that she is very well prepared but remains flexible and easy going with any changes that might arise on the day of an event. She is unflappable, as they say, and I wholeheartedly recommend Nikki for any event where you want your attendees to feel engaged, celebrated, and pleased that they made space in their busy lives to spend their time at a business function.
