Akiko Julien
Accounts Payable

I was born and raised in Japan, where I completed my university studies and spent several years working. A visit to Sydney to see my brother turned into something much more—I fell in love with Australia’s laid-back beach lifestyle, stunning natural beauty and rich, authentic food culture. That trip changed everything. I eventually moved here with my family, and I’m grateful to now call this amazing country home. After completing my studies in accounting and gaining over 13 years of corporate experience, I’ve recently joined Southern World—an incredible opportunity that I feel truly fortunate to be part of.

Outside of work, I love staying active. Weekends often include tennis, the occasional round of golf, and Pilates sessions at home (even when I have to push myself!). I also enjoy bushwalking and exploring nature whenever I can. One of my personal goals is to travel more within Australia and discover its hidden gems—those quiet, beautiful places that make this country so special.
