Meet the Principal

Meet Julie Kapsalis MBE, Principal and Chief Executive of Nescot. Julie grew up just outside Epsom, so this college and community have been part of her life for years. With over 20 years’ experience in economic development, skills and enterprise, she’s led Nescot to a ‘Good’ rating from Ofsted, and built brilliant partnerships with local employers, from the cruise industry to Epsom Downs Racecourse, opening real doors for students.

In 2026, her hard work was recognised with an MBE for Services to Economic Development, presented by the Prince of Wales at Windsor Castle. But ask Julie what matters most, and she’ll tell you: seeing students and the local community thrive.
