Julie is Course Manager for Common Purpose Customised. She
initially joined Common Purpose in France in 2008 and then moved to
Common Purpose Customised in early 2009.
Prior to Common Purpose, Julie worked one year as a trainee for
The United Nations Refugee Agency (UNHCR) in Paris.
Julie studied politics at Sciences Po Toulouse (one of France's
selective Grandes Ecoles) and holds a MA in Cross-cultural
Communication and International Relations from Newcastle
University.
Julie grew up in Asia (Indonesia and Thailand) and therefore
embraced Common Purpose's idea of building bridges between cultures
and people.
Recent experience includes:
- Organisation of successful Quests to Lille (North of
France), bringing together UK leaders and Lille stakeholders to
debate on the importance of partnership working and
collaboration.
- Organisation and coordination of a two-day workshop for Chief
Executives across the public sector in the sub-region of Cheshire
and Warrington
- Organisation of a five-day course for Arts professionals in
Liverpool enabling them to collaborate effectively with leaders in
other sectors and professions, particularly in the area of
regeneration.
