Nikki Wright got into public relations over 20 years ago to make a difference to society. The founder and Managing Director of Wright Communications is now one of New Zealand's top corporate communications practitioners, leading a talented team with expertise across the corporate, government and not-for-profit sectors.

Nikki has worked with some of New Zealand's biggest and most successful companies, including Frucor, Meridian and Mainfreight. She has provided communications support and strategic advice on IPOs, mergers and acquisitions and a range of other business activities. She is also one of New Zealand's foremost experts on corporate social responsibility.

She lives on the North Shore with her husband (and fellow Wright Communications director) Aaron Wainhouse and her daughters Courtney and Stella.

Nikki founded Wright Communications in 2006 and describes it as a family business, where clients are treated as partners and work closely with experienced consultants.

“Corporate social responsibility is the way that businesses can really lead on issues that matter to all of New Zealand, and we want to help them do the best they can”.

“I thrive on the energy generated from great discussions with our clients and seeing their communications have a positive impact with media and stakeholders.”
