Julia Kermode

Julia is founder and director of IWORK (www.iwork.co.uk), which was set up in 2020. Championing independent work, the website provides a wide-range of valuable resources to help all types of independent workers: gig workers, agency workers, temps, contractors, freelancers and the self-employed to better understand the business of working for themselves. Julia is a podcaster, network builder and campaigner. She has significant knowledge, experience and insight into the legal and tax issues affecting the independent workforce.

Prior to IWORK, Julia spent 7 years as CEO of FCSA, a compliance accreditation body for accountants and umbrella firms. Here she led unprecedented growth, successfully increasing the profile of FCSA, extending influence within the government, and raising standards within an often-misunderstood sector. Julia left FCSA in a position of strength, in order to launch IWORK and have a direct impact on the independent workforce that she is so passionate about supporting.
