Julia Whitehead of Ask Joe Public

I have worked in qualitative market researcher for over 25 years and I am a strategic thinker with strong business acumen.  I work with established global brands, start ups and everything in between.

I love listening to people's stories about anything from porridge to platinum, festival to fridges and cleaning to credit cards.   I have rummaged through people's cupboards, gone shopping with them, sat in pubs with them, discussed how their clothes or lingerie make them feel and observed them doing anything from painting walls or eating dinner to open packaging and watching TV commercials.


I work independently, but when required I collaborate with other senior-level researchers to accommodate different projects sizes and approaches.


I gained a BSc in Psychology from Goldsmiths College, London University, and prior to my career in market research, I was a crisis counsellor for a charity.
