Rise, the award-winning advocacy group for gender diversity in the media technology sector, is proud to announce the 2024 winner of the Woman of the Year Award, Megan Mauck. Megan is the Senior Vice President of Media Operations at NBCUniversal and will receive her award, sponsored by Zixi, during the Rise Awards 2024 ceremony, which will be held on Tuesday, 19th November, at Troxy, London.
When asked why Megan should be the Woman of the Year for 2024, Mark Harrison, Founder and CCO said During a turbulent time, when so many senior technology and operational leaders have found it difficult to convey clear, let alone inspirational, messages about innovation and strategic business initiatives, she has stood out as a leader for our times.
Megan began her career as an Engineering Co-Op at Toyota, before joining General Electric s Operational Management Leadership Program in 2006, where she launched her professional journey with NBCUniversal. Over the years, she has progressed through a series of increasingly senior operational and project management roles, ultimately advancing to her current position as a senior executive. Megan holds a degree in Mechanical Engineering from Purdue University and is based in Los Angeles, California.
In her current position, Megan leads NBCUniversal's 24/7 Media Operations across Los Angeles, Denver, and New York, overseeing the ingestion, preparation, packaging, and distribution of NBCUniversal's domestic and international content. Megan is responsible for ensuring seamless delivery across various platforms, including linear broadcast, secondary distribution, O&O stations, Peacock, SkyShowtime, PVOD and major live events. With a focus on delivering highly reliable and automated solutions, her team has been instrumental in enhancing NBCUniversal s content quality and business productivity across the content supply chain.
Beyond her work at NBCUniversal, Megan serves as the Board Chair for Grades of Green, a non-profit organisation dedicated to promoting environmental education for K-12 students. Her involvement reflects her commitment to fostering future generations' awareness and action around sustainability and environmental stewardship.
