Kate started her career in banking, spending ten years in mortgage marketing and new product development.

Having moved several times with her family, firstly from London to Milton Keynes then onto Northampton and Market Harborough before finally, settling in Stamford, Kate decided to put her home moving experience to good use and set up her own relocation and home search consultancy.

Kate helped executives to relocate and settle in the East Midlands for six years before joining Garrington.

Her hands-on approach and extensive knowledge of the region, large network of contacts and gritty determination to crack even the most challenging home search assignment makes her an invaluable ally to have on the team.

Asked why she enjoys doing her job, Kate says ‘I love parachuting into people’s lives, sweeping away the stress of moving home and then having the satisfaction of seeing clients settled and enjoying their new home’.

Kate lives just outside Stamford with her husband, three children, Labrador and horse. In her spare time, she enjoys riding competitively and going on country pursuits.
