Nicole was born and raised in Ayr where her family ran a small truck mechanics business. This is where her desire for a career in business began. Working in Insurance out of high school, a short holiday to Cairns became a permanent move to work as a bookkeeper and payroll administrator for a hospitality and trades labour hire business. After having two children and supporting her partner start a plumbing business, it was finally time to get the accounting degree she had put on hold.
While studying at Central Queensland University and receiving a Bachelor of Accounting (Distinction) Nicole also worked as a bookkeeper for a local building business, having developed an interest for the trades and construction industry.
Nicole has recently worked for a mid-tier accounting firm and developed a wealth of technical knowledge, however the passion for small business, local industry and community has brought Nicole to the Astute team. Nicole is passionate about working closely with clients to support their goals.
Enjoying exploring the many exciting food venues in Cairns with friends, Nicole is also an avid Supercars fan, enjoys a local Cairns Taipans game and of course, running her children around to soccer games, martial arts, and dance lessons.
We have worked with Prue and Gus on our financing for 5 years now, this included both mortgages and personal loans. They have always been professional, upfront and genuine. I can’t recommend them highly enough, and now have a number of friends that use their services that have reported the same experience. Don’t go anywhere else for financial services.
Thank you to Crystal, Damien and John for helping me with my home loan recently. Your hard work is greatly appreciated and made a stressful time much easier.
Can’t recommend these guys enough!!
Jimmydee has been a great help in assisting me with my home loan. I was recommended to Jimmydee by a friend as I was unsure on where to begin for my first home. He made it easy, giving step by step assistance. He is incredibly patient and explains things in simple terms to make everything easy to understand. He was able to go through all the options with me and made making a decision simplistic. He is quick to reply and fast acting. I would recommend JD to anyone in the market for a broker as my experience has been fantastic.
My journey towards my first home loan was smooth and seamless thanks to the help from the team at Astute Finance. I was assisted by Peter and Crystal who were wonderful to deal with. All my questions and concerns were taken care of and I would absolutely recommend giving them a call. Thankyou team Astute 🙂 –
You have a brilliant team there. I have been a customer for many years from the first time deal with John and his team. It’s great to walk in and be treated as a friend, as well as a customer.
The Team at Astute are absolutely amazing. I recently had a review with Tracey and the wealth team for personal insurances. Tracey was fantastic! She explained everything in an easy to understand way and made sure we fully understood what we were discussing while giving us plenty of time to ask questions. Tracey listened to our concerns and provided helpful advice.
You need to make an appointment to chat with Tracey and the team ASAP!
I could not recommend Astute and their amazing team more! They have made our journey of home buying simple and easy, taking all the stress of necessary steps off us. Will be doing any of our financial needs with them from now on! –
