Kate Henderson

Kate Henderson, Head of Marketing at Clowes Developments, joined the Group in June 2020, bringing with her a wealth of transferable marketing and communications experience gained within regional and national corporate law firms.

A natural self-starter, Kate made a late-career move into marketing, beginning her journey as a Marketing Assistant at Geldards LLP. She initially specialised in design and brand before progressing into a multi-disciplinary Marketing Manager role with a regional law firm, where she was responsible for building the marketing function from the ground up.

In 2020, during the uncertainty of the Covid-19 pandemic, Kate saw an opportunity to take her skills into the property sector. While many businesses were scaling back, Clowes Developments was taking a different approach, strengthening its operations and continuing to expand. Kate seized the opportunity to establish an in-house marketing department to support the growing Group and its diverse portfolio.

Kate was appointed Head of Marketing in 2023, taking responsibility for the Group’s marketing strategy across its extensive portfolio of developments throughout the UK. Her role encompasses a broad range of disciplines, from brand, communications and digital marketing to project marketing and stakeholder engagement, ensuring a consistent and commercially focused approach across the Group. Alongside her marketing responsibilities, Kate is also helping to shape Clowes Developments’ ESG strategy.

Born and raised in Derby, Kate remains closely connected to the local community and is a committee member of The Derbyshire Brain Game, an annual black tie fundraiser that brings hundreds of business professionals together for an evening of challenging quiz rounds and plenty of friendly competition, all in support of Marie Curie UK. Outside of work, Kate is a keen photographer and spends much of her spare time with her Labrador, Sol.
