Kate has held many roles in the horticulture sector and has a great breadth of experience from plant nursery, growing, postharvest and processing through to the market both domestic and export. This experience has been gained across a number of horticultural crops.
With a career started in marketing and operational logistics, Kate then turned her skills to human resources, compliance, health & safety and more recently sustainability.
Kate has been involved in Senior Management and Governance roles and believes this gives a perfect balance of experience to take the helm of Potatoes New Zealand.
