Julie Swinbank

Sector Principal - Education

Julie Swinbank Headshot

My role at Waterstons is...

to ask lots of questions and to listen. I am genuinely interested in how organisations work, how they are structured, and in their people and cultures. As sector lead for the higher education sector, I have 18 years of experience of working in universities. I understand the drivers and challenges, and most importantly I can help find the opportunities to work smarter and not harder.

My life away from work is...

spending time with my three kids and family. I enjoy yoga, walking and running, which helps to balance out lots of coffee and cake with friends.

I’ll be with you when...

you need someone to chat to over a coffee and give you a fresh perspective on your challenges. I’ll also be there in a crisis when you need help. If I can’t help you, I’ll find you someone who can!

My sector strengths are...

  • Higher Education
  • Engineering and manufacturing
