Julie has been Chief Executive of Transparency International New Zealand (TINZ) since  2018, following 20 years of experience as a Chief Executive Officer and senior manager in  regulatory, professional and NGO organisations. TINZ is one of 100 chapters in a global  movement against corruption. It is a non-partisan civil society organisation powered by  volunteers.

Julie advocates for transparency integrity and accountability as antidotes to corruption. TINZ focuses on ‘integrity systems’, highlighting where we need to change law and  practices. Stronger systems help us to counter, identify and root out corruption, which  unfortunately does occur in New Zealand. TINZ' focus areas include business integrity, public sector integrity, integrity and civil society awareness and participation. We also work with Pacific chapters to support their anti-corruption work.
