Her first job was working at the Majorca Daily Bulletin in the 1980s, shortly after leaving university. She has fond memories of her time at the Bulletin which in those days was located in the Calle San Felio in the old part of Palma. “I used to start my working day with a coffee and ensaimada at the Bar Martin,” (this bar which is still open today was a second home to staff of the Bulletin!).
Prior to joining the World Travel & Tourism Council (WTTC) in Aug 2021, Julia spent 14 years in the aviation sector on the Board of British Airways and Iberia and as Chief of Staff at International Airlines Group. Before joining British Airways, Julia was senior adviser to Prime Minister Tony Blair. She held a number of key positions in the UK government and public sector, including Director at the Home Office and Department for Education and Employment; Assistant Chief Executive at the London Borough of Camden; and head of communications at the Communication Workers Union.
The WTTC is a forum for the travel and tourism industry. It is made up of members from the global business community and works with governments to raise awareness about the travel and tourism industry. It is known for being the only forum to represent the private sector in all parts of the industry worldwide. Its activities include research on the economic and social impact of the industry and its organisation of global and regional summits focuses on issues and developments relevant to the industry. She is a great fan of Mallorca.
