Small Planet Airlines flight S5 3260 from Paderborn (Germany) to Birmingham (United Kingdom), operated by Airbus A320 (registration SP-HAI) ran off the taxiway after landing in Birmingham Airport and stopped on the grass. All 98 passengers safely disembarked the aircraft and no injuries for passengers and the crew.
The aircraft had landed on runway 33 and was taxiing to the apron at the time of the incident.

Conclusion:
The aircraft entered a 90° turn on a damp taxiway at a speed that was too high for the conditions and geometry of turn. The nosewheels lost traction and skidded, causing the flight crew to lose full directional control of the aircraft.
