Catherine Carleton-Smith

Catherine started her career in advertising, working initially at Lowe Howard-Spink before moving to Ogilvy & Mather for a further 10 years, where she became a Board Director. Her clients were primarily government departments, including the Department of Health, the Department for Business and the Department for Education.

She then spent 10 years as a Partner at Lillingston Events, creating and organising events for primarily UHNW private clients both domestically and internationally, before setting up her own company in a similar field.

Her interest in providing strategic advice, mixed with pragmatism and a desire to support change for both individuals and organisations, led to her training as a leadership and executive coach. She joined forces with Kedge in 2018.
