Seedtable Podcast | European Tech, VC & Startups

A fascinating chat with Nick Mills, General Manager for EMEA at CircleCI, on developer tools, opening up a London HQ, moats, and reading fiction.

Show Notes

My guest today is Nicholas Mills. Nick is operator and early-stage investor, currently General Manager for EMEA at CircleCI, where he leads the new London HQ. 

Before joining CircleCI, Nick was the Head of Revenue for UK & Ireland at Stripe, and the Head of Sales for EMEA at Facebook so he has an incredible amount of experience to share with us. 

Nick is a wonderful guest and in this conversation, we cover absolutely everything:

  • Nick’s path to leading the CircleCI London HQ
  • His framework for when to leave a job, idea or project
  • His work at CircleCI and how they are taking the CI/CD industry by storm
  • Nick’s framework for hiring and managing a team and why one-on-one are so important
  • What makes the London tech ecosystem unique
  • How Nick picks the books he reads and why reading Fiction is important
... and so much more. 

I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did!
