Dr Nick Taylor
Co-founder and CEO, UnmindNick is Co-founder and CEO of Unmind, a workplace mental health platform that provides clinically backed tools and training to create healthier, happier more human organisations.
From a young age, Nick has been fascinated by the human mind. This interest was further reinforced while he volunteered as a Samaritan and acted as a support worker for the mental health charity, Mind. Nick pursued his interest, studying psychology at the University of Cardiff, before gaining a doctorate in Clinical Psychology from the University of Sheffield. He then embarked on a long career with the National Health Service as a Clinical Psychologist.
It was while working for the NHS in a leadership role that Nick became interested in corporate wellness and how organisations could benefit by looking after their employees. Determined to implement a strategy that would enable the NHS to best support its workers, Nick realised there was a clear gap in the market for a platform providing all organisations with the tools to do this. Nick’s belief in the importance of offering a proactive solution led him to co-found Unmind in 2016.
