Amanda Cooton

  (She/Her)
Senior Project Manager (Australia)

I support our NKD team in Australia & New Zealand with the delivery of world-class leadership development and learning solutions. Currently, my focus is specifically across Australia Post and CSR. 

Favourite learning moment

Having the lovely Aimee Maurer, Senior Project Manager – Rollouts, take me under her wing and show me the ropes for my Project Management role in Australia, and then getting the chance to see the leadership course material in action first-hand. 

My experience

With 20 years in the creative industry, I’ve built a career around turning ideas into well-run, beautifully delivered projects. I’ve worked across fast-paced environments where no two days are the same, honing strengths in project management, stakeholder engagement, budgeting, and keeping calm when timelines shift or priorities evolve. I love bringing structure to any project, making sure the details are nailed so the big idea can shine. That blend is what I bring to my role as Project Manager at NKD.

I’ve only just started at NKD, but I’ve already had the opportunity to support on the Australia Post account, helping bring creative learning to their leadership team, always with a focus on detail, collaboration, and smooth execution. What I enjoy most is making sure the moving parts come together seamlessly so the final result feels considered, engaging, and effective for both the client and the audience.
