Congratulations to Margaret Jobling who has been awarded Marketing Week’s Marketer of the Year title at this year’s Marketing Week Awards.
Margaret has been the Chief Marketing Officer for NatWest Group since 2020. Since joining NatWest, Margaret has given their marketing real purpose with a focus on financial wellbeing and the environment. Marketing Week’s Editor-in-Chief, Russell Parson, says, “Margaret was the unanimous choice of our judges. A marketer with an enviable track record of breathing life into brands in the most challenging of sectors, of leading them through change and delivering business outcomes, and a staunch advocate for marketing and marketers. An excellent choice, therefore, for Marketer of the Year.”
While this is undoubtedly a huge career highlight, Margaret’s other career achievements include launching Dove deodorant across Europe and delivering the first ever global Lynx campaign, winning a Cannes Gold Lion for Lynx ‘Getting Dressed’. She also launched the award-winning ‘time to be selfish’ brand campaign for Radox. In 2020, Margaret was announced as one of Marketing Week’s Top 100 Most Effective Marketers. She was recently appointed as ISBA President and has been listed on ‘Women to Watch 2022’ by Cranfield University School of Management.
Margaret is an inspiration for women in marketing, paving the way for greater gender parity by reaching changemaking positions in her career. She also offers her time to other marketers as a mentor for the School of Marketing – an organisation helping to upskill new and existing marketers around the world.
