Julia Cross Public Relations

Hello! I’m a senior communications consultant who’s spent the last 13 years advising some of the nation’s biggest brands. I now run a small PR consultancy, specialising in supporting emerging food and drink and lifestyle brands.

I work with a network of trusted associates to plan and deliver strategic PR campaigns which deliver commercial results for clients.

A former associate director at one of the largest and fastest growing agencies outside of London, I’ve led award-winning PR, social media and digital campaigns for some of the UK’s most celebrated brands. 

My career highlight is leading one particular, award winning campaign for Yorkshire Tea, which played its part in that business’ continued growth whilst many of its competitors were in decline.  The launch involved spending a day with children’s author, Julia Donaldson. An all time hero of mine, she said I was ‘lovely and professional.’ Praise doesn’t get much higher, right?

My career low light is accidentally finding myself live on Wolverhampton’s 107.7 The Wolf, whilst trying to sell a story about broadband. Oops.

Another proud achievement is writing a regular column and occasional features and reviews for a regional lifestyle magazine for eight years, alongside my PR career.

When I’m not working, I’m a soft play frequenting, house renovating, late night jogging, Diet Coke drinking, children’s story writing, wife and mum-of-one.

I offer a range of services to suit whichever stage your business is at, from first launches to supporting growth strategies. Whether you need strategic consultancy or a creative campaign devising and delivering, I have the breadth of expertise to help. More detail about how I can support your business is available under services.
