Jackie Guscott MacAllen

Communications strategist · New York

Since 2007, Jackie has worked with global organizations focused on science, innovation, manufacturing and sustainability, including 12 years inside the chemical industry. She has led regional and global communications teams at major science-based companies. Her work covers internal and external communications, marketing communications, digital campaigns and social media, stakeholder relations, crisis communications, issues management and public affairs.
