We are delighted to welcome Nicky James to Turnstone HR! Nicky started with us at the beginning of May 2024 and comes with a wealth of HR knowledge and experience.

Nicki provides HR support and advice to clients drawing on the generalist experience she has gained across a variety of sectors including manufacturing, tourism, SMEs and local government, most recently with Westmorland and Furness Council.

She studied Modern Foreign Languages at Manchester University and started her HR career on the Metal Box graduate scheme. She gained the CIPD qualification at that stage and more recently has studied for the level 7 Advanced Award in Employment Law.

An HR generalist, Nicki has particular strengths in employee relations and the use of employment law as a problem-solving tool for people management challenges. She also enjoys working on policies and procedures to ensure compliance and has a thorough, “eye for detail” approach.

She is married with two grown-up sons and her interests include cinema, travelling, hill walking and smartphone photography. She is also a history enthusiast and enjoys going to history festivals and online talks, reading history books (both fiction and non-fiction), and watching documentaries. She likes seeing stand-up comedians and has seen a lot of the big names at various venues across the local area as well as further afield in Manchester and Liverpool.
