"I heard about it [Nurole] through a friend who was on the platform and said I should sign up. I had been intrigued by the sort of companies advertising on Nurole. It’s a reflection of the way the industry is becoming more transparent which is only a good thing. Anyone that I speak to about Nurole has been very positive about how flexible it is, both for members looking for a role and people looking for board members."
