She was a College Lecturer in Law at New Hall from 1975-1983 and Bursar of New Hall from 1983-1990. Following a stint as Bursar of Trinity Hall from 1990-1993, she was appointed Treasurer, University of Cambridge, and served in that role for ten years, remaining a Fellow of Trinity Hall until 2003, when she was elected Bursar and Fellow of Clare Hall.

She retired in 2010, although returned to work at Clare Hall in 2014 for a short period as Interim Bursar. She has been an Emeritus Fellow of Clare Hall since 2010.

A member of the Clare Hall Music Committee, Joanna has a keen interest in music, singing in two local choirs. She is a Trustee of several local charities, including the Foundation of Edward Storey, which runs sheltered accommodation in Cambridge and Melbourn, and is a Member of Comberton Academy Trust.
