Carol Watson

Board Member Joined Sep 2018

I have a first-class honours degree in International Business Management, which gave me a holistic understanding of business functions including accounts, HR, business law and corporate ethics. During my time on the Board, I've been able to further develop my commercial knowledge and experience. 

My connection to Kingdom runs deep. I spent the majority of my childhood in Kincardine where Kingdom redeveloped the high-rise flats, which completely changed the village and benefited a community. I'm passionate about ensuring people have their basic needs met, and Kingdom's roots in tackling homelessness aligns with this. 

Beyond my studies, I’ve had several businesses of my own, including a property business that provided me with experience in the private rented sector. 

Having restructured our family business, I bring a wide range of business knowledge and experience to the Board, which allows me to consider decisions and their effects across multiple areas. I'm particularly proud to have been part of significant projects like the Fairfield transfer and the LLP with St Andrews University. 

Looking ahead, I'm hoping that Kingdom continues to grow and expand its offerings, which provide life-changing opportunities to our customers.
