NBCUniversal’s Megan Mauck to receive Rise Woman of the Year Award

Senior vice president of media operations at NBCUniversal Megan Mauck has been announced as the recipient of the Rise Woman of the Year Award.

Mauck will receive her award from the advocacy group for gender diversity in the media technology sector during the Rise Awards 2024 ceremony, which will be held on Tuesday, 19th November, at Troxy, London.

When asked why Mauck should be the Woman of the Year for 2024, Rise advisory board member and DPP founder and CCO Mark Harrison 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.”

Mauck began her career at Toyota, before joining General Electric’s Operational Management Leadership Program in 2006, where she launched her professional journey with NBCUniversal.

In her current position, she 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.

Mauck is responsible for ensuring seamless delivery across various platforms, including linear broadcast, secondary distribution, 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.
