He has an MSc in Entomology from the University of Natal, Pietermaritzburg campus. His professional employment record goes back to the mid-1990s when he was employed in KwaZulu-Natal (KZN) as part of the Institute of Natural Resources’ (INR) Natural Resource Management Programme where his work focussed on the sustainable use of natural resources in rural KZN. Since then he was employed by SRK Consulting in their Cape Town office and also did a stint with Dudley Janeke Environmental Consultants in Strand where he helped to build quality control systems and mentored staff. In 2007 Nick Steytler started his own consultancy, KHULA Environmental Consultants (KHULA). KHULA provides its clients with consulting services in both the fields of Integrated Environmental Management (e.g. EIAs, EMPs, environmental audits and ECO services) and Natural Resource Management (wetland and riparian systems assessment and management, coastal management and Event and Facility Greening). KHULA has a strong coastal focus, undertaking many of its projects in the coastal areas from the West Coast through to the Eastern Cape coast. In the past 16 years KHULA has become a successful business which is a testimony to both the quality and affordability of the consultancy’s professional service.
