Katie joined Pilotlight in 2023 after having worked as a senior investment analyst specialising in responsible investment, with a focus in recent years on environmental and social impact. Following an extended maternity leave, she decided to move into the third sector and utilise her skills in consultancy, project management and analysis to work with charities and social enterprises, connecting partners with different skill sets and backgrounds to learn from one another and work towards increasing the reach and impact charities can have.

Katie has a Master’s degree in Economics, financial qualifications such as the CFA, and she is also a One Young World Ambassador. She spends most of her spare time running around after her two young children and enjoys a good book when she can!
