Kate Popham

Account Director

What have I done . . .

I started my PR career in the Channel 4 press office before moving to a specialist arts and media PR agency where my clients included The Times and Sunday Times newspapers, art galleries, museums and theatrical productions. I then took a year-long solo round-the-world trip, taking in eleven countries across North America, South America and Australasia. This inspired me to switch sectors to travel public relations. Before joining Hills Balfour, I spent over five years representing tour operators and tourist boards for destinations including Hong Kong, Slovenia, Taiwan, Jamaica, Dominica and New South Wales.

What I do now . . .

I joined Hills Balfour as an Account Director in 2010 and now promote the vast attractions of New York City as the dedicated PR contact for NYC & Company

What I do for fun . . .

I love adventure pursuits from hiking and rock climbing to surfing, kayaking and diving – as long as the water is warm enough! Within London, I satisfy my active side with street dance classes, flying trapeze and other circus skills.

What I bring to Hills Balfour...

A solid background in destination PR, a creative approach, an upbeat attitude and plenty of chatter!
