Hello! I’m Nikesh and I work as the eVisa Project Manager here at the Welsh Refugee Council.

It’s a really rewarding role because I get to help vulnerable communities in Wales as the UK shifts from physical immigration documents to digital ones. It’s a big change for a lot of people, and I’m here to make that transition a bit smoother for them.

Before this, I was a Housing and Landlord Caseworker at the WRC, helping sanctuary seekers navigate housing issues. And before that, I worked with outsourcing companies that supported governments and diplomatic missions. That experience gave me a great foundation, but joining the WRC just felt like the right move—it’s a chance to do work that truly makes a difference.

Outside of work, I’m really interested in geopolitics—it’s fascinating to see how global events shape the world we live in. And when I’m not diving into that, I love getting out into the Welsh valleys. They’re so beautiful, and it’s the perfect way to clear my head and recharge.
