Resume
Nikki van der Walt
AECO Technology Strategist · Enterprise Account Manager
Summary
I’m an AECO technology strategist with 16 years’ experience across consulting, implementation, enterprise sales and strategic advisory.
I’ve spent my career helping teams make complex technology feel less overwhelming — whether that means untangling workflows, getting the right people in the room, or turning a big transformation goal into something practical and actionable.
My background started hands-on in BIM and digital delivery, and has grown into advising enterprise customers, CIOs, CDOs and cross-functional teams on technology adoption, account growth and long-term transformation.
