For Katherine, having such a varied estate of pubs and hotels, that is continually growing and being invested in, is really exciting from a marketing perspective. It certainly makes her job easier when she has so many fantastic pubs to shout about! She also loves leading her marketing team – who are all great marketeers and seeing them develop within their roles is a joy.
