Nikita’s strengths lie in open and transparent Stakeholder Management, Communication, and working with tech, analytics, and design to build amazing products in the most optimized way.

She looks for ways to design and develop features that will benefit the customers while improving efficiency within the company. Before that, she was working at Just Eat in London as a Product Manager within their Operations team. She worked to automate and streamline resolutions of key customer queries, cut costs within the Operations pillar, and change the way the team worked to be more mathematical in their delivery: to start using some key Agile principles and to be able to better estimate what can be delivered within a period. Nikita began working in Product Management at QVC, where she was responsible for the prioritization and resolution of digital projects for the QVC website and mobile applications and managed global initiatives, local initiatives, and Monetate campaigns (to measure and track user behavior).
