Nicola McCormick, Chief Operating Officer

I’m Nicola, I’m the Chief Operating Officer at pro-manchester. As COO, I run the business on a day to day basis and look after the business strategy alongside Sam Booth.  We run the organisation together as equal partners with shared responsibility.  We’re strong believers that our differing skillsets and experiences complement each other’s strengths and perspectives, thus building a culture of creativity and innovation. I am passionate about the development of the organisation, helping evolve marketing, sponsorship, product development and customer service.

As part of my role I also oversee the delivery of pro-manchester’s extensive events and conference programme.  This includes over 120 events per year from business lunches and breakfasts to the Trailblazing Tech conference and Made in Manchester Awards.  I have worked in the events industry for over 18 years joining pro-manchester in 2010 as Events & Conference Manager and I was made a Director in 2017.

Prior to working for pro-manchester, I was the International Event Manager for Travel Counsellors. Before this, I worked my way up from Events Assistant to Head of Events at Manchester agency, Gilds Events, with regular clients including N Brown Group, Bupa and Siemens to name but a few.
