Leadership

Nick Almond joined NEST in 2007 and has advanced his career from Compliance Team Member to his most recent role as Director of ISP Relations. Nick is responsible for maintaining the NEST ISP Relations team's infrastructure and overall management of the Operational departments within the NEST of Florida office. The fundamental objectives of his position include ensuring that NEST has fully vetted all compliant service providers performing services across US and Canada.

During his tenure at NEST, Nick has had the opportunity to work within all levels of the NEST Compliance Department to get a proper understanding of all that goes into the operation of vetting, hiring, negotiating, and partnering with service providers across the US. Most recently, he has been involved in developing and implementing viable processes to create structure and communication between all departments that may touch the NEST ISPs at one point or another.

Nick earned his undergraduate degree from the University of Kentucky and his Executive Master's in Business Administration from St. Joseph's University.

In his spare time, Nick enjoys giving back to the community. Hilton Head Heroes and Friends of Foster Children, two NEST Nurtures recipients and ongoing non-profit partnerships, are near and dear to his heart. Nick is a die-hard Philadelphia sports fan, but when he is not watching sports, you can find him spending time with his wife and two children or out on the greens for a round of golf.
