Julie has been at the forefront of sustainability in the real estate sector throughout her entire career. She was Managing Director and founding partner of Upstream, a leading sustainability strategy consultancy which was acquired by JLL in 2007.
She said: "I'm thrilled by the opportunity of leading UK-GBC through the next stage of its journey. Its outstanding reputation is richly deserved – not least due to Paul King's own transformational leadership, but also the sustainability know-how and can-do attitude of a professional team and a committed membership."
