About
Clear Marketing was founded in 2004 to inject new energy and new thinking into the world of hotel and destination representation . Debbie Cleary set about creating a team of creative, energetic, passionate and results focused individuals, each with an outstanding background in travel and tourism.
Kerrie
Responsible for the account management, sales and marketing for our luxury hotel clients and taking care of our social media channels, I started at Clear Marketing in 2013. With 15-years travel industry experience I joined the industry after graduating with a BA (Hons) Journalism degree. My previous roles were at a luxury cruise line and a Tour Operator. Having had several holidays to the Caribbean, I developed as passion that made me want to work with the region. I have been to Barbados more times than I can count! (I got married there in 2014 and convinced my sister to do the same five years later) and can tick off having visited nine Caribbean countries. One of my favourite memories was taking my eldest son on his first Caribbean holiday- to Tobago. I am working Mum to two boys so it’s just as well that I am highly organised and like to be busy!

Travel has been my biggest passion for as long as I can remember, and I am working my way through the list of countries I want to visit – 45 countries so far and counting! I am originally from New Zealand so travel is in my blood. My first job at 19 was cabin crew and ever since then my career has been centred around travel. I joined Clear Marketing in early 2023 after working for a number of major brands in the travel sector. My focus now is on increasing sales and market share for our clients through exceptional account management and engagement with our tour operators and other trade partners. I recently returned from my first Clear Marketing trip to St Lucia and it has made me even more excited to see what the future holds.
As well as travelling, I love to keep fit and I’m being kept very busy currently with the planning of my wedding in France in 2024 – stressful but enjoyable!

I have always had the travel bug. From the age of 16 spending a summer in San Sebastian living with a local family, to studying and working in Mexico City as part of my degree and then living and working in Japan for 2 years. I was lucky enough to start my work life at British Airways Holidays, contracting some of the most beautiful parts of the world. From Patagonia and the Galapagos Islands to the Caribbean and Australia. I had some of the best mentors along the way, learning that partnership and collaboration is what drives sales, not the cheapest deal.
I set up Clear Marketing in Jan 2004, encouraged by one of my closest Caribbean hoteliers (who is still part of our portfolio today). He said then that I should take my love and passion of selling travel dreams and make it my job – and that is what I did!

After 14 years working for a Tour Operator and Luxury Cruise Line, I started at Clear Marketing in 2014. I have been lucky enough to visit a range of destinations; my favourites being Florida (our household is Disney mad), The Maldives and Barbados – the latter being where I renewed my wedding vows at Sea Breeze Beach House. I am super organised and love being busy – outside of work is no different!! Between my daughter’s dance lessons, coaching her girls football team, at the stables with our pony Nemo, training our Cocker Spaniel puppy Buzz or creating bespoke celebration cakes, life is never boring!!

Like many other people, I have always dreamt of traveling around the world and experiencing different cultures! And that’s one of the reasons why I decided to major in Hospitality Management. I was then very lucky to be part of a study abroad program to Dubai, and from a 3 months’ program, it turned into 10 years of my life in Dubai! Very fortunately, I started my career in Dubai with some of the luxury hotels such as the Burj Al Arab, Atlantis the Palm, and Caesars Palace Dubai. Being a hotelier for all my career life has given me numerous opportunities to advanced myself with commercial knowledge, and understand different cultures while traveling from the East to the West. During all of these, I met my husband during Covid, and decided to start our little family with our little girl back to Europe. Now the best things in my life are having my family around while working in the industry I am in love with, alongside a team who shares the same passion of travel from Clear Marketing!
