Katie Watts

Campaigns Lead

Katie arrived at MSE in October 2016 and was in charge of our communications until 2022, when she moved to manage our campaigns team. Katie works alongside Martin, the campaigns team and all of MSE's experts to make sure the consumer's voice is heard in the corridors of power. As well as politicians and regulators, she also works with charities and other consumer advocates to fight your corner.

Previously a short-film producer, Katie loves movies and film festivals, especially the golden age Hollywood classics (Singin' in the Rain is her favourite). She's also a keen volunteer, running a Guides and Scouts unit at Great Ormond Street Children's Hospital and fundraising for a child protection charity, Dot Com Children's Foundation.
