A Tonbridge finance manager stole £170,835 from her employer.

Appearing at Sevenoaks Magistrates’ Court, Klare Meyer, of Northwood Road, admitted making the fraudulent bank transfers while working for Tunbridge Wells-based loyalty scheme The Ice Organisation between 2011 and last February.

But the 36-year-old denied four other counts of fraud by abuse of position and will stand trial accused of stealing £11,345 in wages, £1,766 in healthcare payments and £22,474 from the company’s credit and debit cards.

She was released on unconditional bail to attend Maidstone Crown Court on Tuesday, February 7.
