Julie joined BIBA as the Head of Compliance in March 2024 and is passionate about helping members with all regulatory related enquiries. She is responsible for hosting the Regional Compliance Forums and discussing relevant topics with the FCA and other regulatory bodies. Her mantra is to help and support members by deciphering rules and regulations, making them easier to understand.
Having previously worked in the general insurance and financial services sector for 35 years, much of her career and experience has been in the world of compliance and regulation, spending the last 20 years looking after risk and compliance for a large intermediary in Somerset which involved developing and implementing policies and procedures, FCA authorisations and providing technical advice and guidance to the different branches within the group.
In her spare time, Julie is a qualified personal trainer and boxercise coach and enjoys riding her motorcycle with her husband, exploring the UK and Europe.
