In the interview, Nicole talks openly about what drew her to FIELDS: the entrepreneurial mindset, the direct and collaborative way of working, and the opportunity to contribute meaningfully from day one. She explains why she chose a firm where analysis and action go hand-in-hand, and how the FIELDS approach—deep understanding, close cooperation and disciplined execution—fits her way of working.

What I like most about my job is the variety. There is always a new challenge or perspective to dive into and it is also inspiring to work alongside founders & entrepreneurs.

We also explore her move from Austria to the Netherlands: what it means to build a life in a new country, how she experiences Dutch culture, and how the transition has shaped her professionally and personally. Nicole shares how she finds energy in a diverse, international environment and why Amsterdam quickly felt like home and we take a look how a day in the life of an investment associate looks like.

Nicole reflects on what drives her, what she values in a team, and what she finds most rewarding in PE: working closely with entrepreneurs, seeing progress up close, and helping companies realise their potential step by step.

It’s a candid conversation that offers a clear look at the people behind FIELDS and the mindset that connects us—curious, committed and ready to build.
