Troy Nichols, owner of The Nichols Group Government Relations, brings nearly thirty years of policy and political experience in the Pacific Northwest. He first moved to Washington State from Oregon to become the state director of the National Federation of Independent Business in 2007.

Before joining PBGR in 2017, Troy served as Executive Officer of the Olympia Master Builders for three years.

6-10 years

Troy's tactical approach to advocacy - for even the most unique public policy challenges facing Northwest industries - has been shaped over nearly three decades of policy experience in the Pacific Northwest. He specializes in providing strategic lobbying and consulting services, helping his diverse clients navigate Olympia politics and achieve their legislative, regulatory and state funding goals.

Prior to taking ownership of The Nichols Group Government Relations, Troy's broad experience gave him a unique perspective that can only come from first-hand experience over 25 years in campaigns, grassroots organization, trade association management, and serving as legislative staff:


  • As caucus staff liaison for the Washington House Capital Budget Committee, Troy helped to negotiate and pass several multi-billion dollar capital budgets during his tenure

  • As executive officer for a five-county trade association, Troy helped stop the association's decade-long decline in membership, balanced its annual budget for two years in a row, revamped several programs and racked up an impressive string of local policy and electoral victories; and

  • As Chief of Staff to the Oregon House Majority Leader and the Speaker of the Oregon House, Troy served as strategic counsel to state leaders on the most important and sensitive issues facing the state.


Troy believes in keeping The Nichols Group Government Relations a resourceful and nimble company so that its partners can work directly with clients on their specific policy challenges. A graduate of Western Oregon University, Troy also served on the City Council in Keizer, Oregon. He lives in rural Thurston County with his wife, Julie, a real estate attorney, and their two young children.
