Julia Sang

Julia started her working life as an office assistant for a charity where she learned all about advertising. During this time Julia also attended an evening course which awarded her a Diploma in Development Studies and which lead to a job at the Development Education Association (DEA). Through the DEA Julia had the opportunity to work in Sri Lanka, where she happily spent the next three years.  If you’ve never been to Sri Lanka, the food is amazing and the beaches are beautiful!

Back in England, Julia returned to digital advertising, working with some of the world’s biggest brands including Britvic, Unilever and IRIS Worldwide. And then on to Studio 24! Julia prefers project management to advertising as the projects have a longer life and Julia enjoys iterating and building relationships with clients.

Julia loves the challenge of managing big projects such as the global e-commerce sites for Urban Bar and the consultation website for the Heathrow expansion: always keeping projects under control with a strict eye on client and site priorities.

Education and learning are very important to Julia. Julia has recently signed up for Career Ready where she will visit schools and give Y12/13 students the skills and confidence they need begin a career in digital. Outside of work Julia organises Playing Out sessions in association with the City Council. Using her expert skills as a project manager, Julia has set up a Facebook page to offer advice to other community groups about organising their own Playing Out days.
