Nicole Peterman

Independent Advisor, The Priority Project, Mission Australia

Nicole is a social entrepreneur at heart, and also an investor. She founded Help Me With It, a double-sided marketplace for the social service sector which was transferred to the Australian Red Cross in 2018. She is now leading another first of its kind service for Mission Australia and The Salvation Army. During a challenging 4-year stint at PwC, Nicole found time and space within the social impact ‘code’ to champion a second innovative social service looping in unlikely stakeholder groups - property managers and landlords to prioritise private rentals to vulnerable women. Last year, Nicole enjoyed her second gap-year and successfully graduated from the AICD’s Director course. She’s now an Independent Advisor. Nicole can ride a unicycle and wishes she applied for Survivor in her 30s.
