Catherine joined GoCardless after 14 years as CFO at Interoute, a cloud services platform which she grew from $20m turnover to a $700m business, before successfully exiting the business in May 2018 for x11 times EBITDA. GoCardless have subsequently raised $75m in a Series E round in February this year supported by Catherine.
