Niki Turkington works in business development for NOROCK in the United States, creating opportunities that help our business grow and stand out. No two days are the same — one day she might be researching and reaching out to potential customers, the next coordinating a designer collaboration or setting up a trade show. At its core, Niki’s role is about connecting the dots between people, brands, and opportunities, blending detective work, event planning, and relationship building.
I’m passionate about NOROCK because it’s truly a game-changer. There’s nothing better than showing our technology to a restaurateur or designer and seeing their face light up when they realize how simple and brilliant our innovation is.
Niki brings a strong background in marketing and PR, having worked with high-profile chefs and design companies including Curtis Stone, Andrew Zimmern, Apartment Therapy, and Wayfair. Originally from Perth, Australia, Niki pairs her professional experience with her Australian perspective to support NOROCK’s growth and presence in the U.S. And yes, wobbly tables drive her insane — which makes her especially proud of NOROCK’s technology.
Outside of work, Niki has called the U.S. home for the past 18 years. She’s married to a Brazilian, and together they’re raising two American kids while keeping their global roots alive through regular trips to Brazil and Australia. Her happy place will always be the beach, where an ocean swim is the ultimate reset.
When it comes to food, Niki is a huge fan of yum cha and could eat soup dumplings every day. At home, sushi is her go-to takeout, and her husband takes the reins on the BBQ, cooking perfect steaks.
