Helping leaders and teams scale with clarity, trust and performance

I am a global commercial leader and entrepreneur with two decades of experience growing teams and revenue across Europe, the Middle East and APAC. I work with founders and leaders who want to build healthy, high performing organizations.

"As Sales Director, Julia brought relentless drive, energy and a scrappy, entrepreneurial mindset from day one. She set high standards, trusted her people and coached several team members to grow significantly under her leadership."

Keynote speaking

Workshops and leadership development

Focus: Leadership teams and cross functional groups

About Julia

I have spent more than twenty years in commercial roles in travel tech, media and marketplaces, most recently as Commercial Director at a global experiences platform. I have built and led sales and account management teams across Europe, the Middle East and APAC, leading 11 offices from London in the West to Sydney in the East.

My work has always sat at the intersection of performance and people. I care about results, and I care deeply about how those results are created. My approach combines clarity on goals and expectations with empathy, honest feedback and a strong belief that people do their best work when they feel trusted and seen.

Today I split my time between leadership coaching and advisory work, entrepreneurship, and supporting leaders who want to grow in a sustainable way, without burning themselves or their teams out.

What I bring to the table

Scaling sales and account management teams across regions and cultures

Building commercial strategies that connect targets, structure and behavior

Creating performance cultures based on clear expectations and high trust

Coaching leaders through change, growth and difficult conversations

Developing managers who can both care for and challenge their teams

Navigating complex stakeholder landscapes and competing priorities

Supporting women in leadership and under represented talent in tech

"Julia became my manager in 2013 and has always taken care of her employees in the best way. She works incredibly hard, sets a very high bar and makes you want to give that little extra, both for the team and the company."
