Meet The Team

Kate

Having worked in Lakeside as a Retail Manager, I took a break when I had my children and was self employed, helping my husband with our own business.  I began working for Louise in 2012, initially as Pink Flamingo Manager, then spent some time in Starfish, but for the last couple of years I’ve been managing Just Shoes.  The business has been in Whitstable for over thirty years and we have very loyal and lovely customers, whom I love helping.  We stock such good quality brands, you always have every confidence when giving people advice and seeing familiar faces return time after time is a pleasure.

Before starting to work in Just Shoes, I worked in hospitality – I love being around the public and giving my opinion and advice on the good things in life!  I love working in Just Shoes as I love all the brands that we sell and I really believe in them, so it’s great being able to talk about them to our lovely customers every day.  My favourite brand is a toss up between Pikolinos and Yokono as I love Spanish shoes!  I enjoy showing my passion to our customers and making them feel confident in the shoes they buy.  Every day is different and I love new challenges!

I started working for Louise in December 2016, having moved to lovely Whitstable from London. I worked in visual merchandising for The White Company for a number of years, before taking a bit of a detour (as you do in your 20s!) into West End theatre – both of which I loved. However, it’s great to return to retail and I feel so lucky to have been welcomed into the team – nowadays I mainly work between Pink Flamingo  and Just Shoes.  My favourite parts of the job (aside from our lovely customers!), are the extra opportunities I’ve been given by being part of a small business.  Most recently, I’ve enjoyed developing a new independent website for Just Shoes – I hope you like it!
