Brodie Nichol is Managing Director of Randolph Hill Nursing Homes Group, an Edinburgh-based company that owns and runs seven nursing homes across central and east Scotland. The group cares for nearly 400 residents and employs more than 700 people.

Nichol's LinkedIn profile gives June 2026 as his start date.

Nichol studied Business Management at the University of Leeds from 2021 to 2024, after school at Fettes College in Edinburgh. He joined Randolph Hill in 2024 and became a director.

Randolph Hill was founded in 1985 by his father, Elliot Nichol. Announcing the appointment, the group said Nichol was committed to continuing its investment in modern systems for rostering, care planning and finance, so that colleagues could spend more time on caring than on administration. Speaking to Care Home Professional, he said he aimed to build on the foundations laid by his father and Peter McCormick, and that his focus would be on modernising the business and adopting technology and data while keeping its established values.
