Current Role: Global Beauty & Personal Care eCommerce Assistant at Unilever  

My name is Margaret Hanlon and I am a BBs Marketing graduate from Maynooth University. As someone who really didn’t enjoy secondary school, Maynooth University completely changed my perspective on education and how enjoyable it could be. Since graduating in 2016 from MU, I’ve complete a Dual Masters Degree in International Management from Northeastern University in Boston & DCU and most recently gained my Certificate in Digital Marketing from UCLA in Los Angeles.  

After finishing up my Masters in 2017 I went straight into my first job as eCommerce Executive at Unilever Ireland. Since then, I’ve had multiple roles across the business both in Ireland and the UK, with my current role being part of the Global team, meaning I work with teams all across the world. As Global Beauty & Personal Care eCommerce Assistant I get to work on lots of different projects from test & trial initiatives on Amazon Europe to Sustainability work within Beauty & Personal Care in Asia.  

Studying Marketing and MU set the foundation for each role I’ve had since graduating and I would not be where I am in my career today without the support of my Professors and Lecturers at Maynooth University.
