Meet TWIC Woman of the Year: Maura Scott
While she is very proud of the new perspective she’s brought to the sales role thanks to her 20 years of experience practicing law, she is also proud of her team’s reorganization in 2016 when the company put a bigger focus on trade partners and started building account teams to deliver better analytics and support to customers.
“We built a great infrastructure internally to bring collaboration between the people in the field at the c-stores and the account people at headquarters,” she said. “We called it our top account framework and it transcended our biggest customers all the way down to independent operators.”
To other women working in the industry, she advises them to own and bring forward their unique perspectives, both to the customer and to leadership.
“The customer of tomorrow is not the same as it was 20 years ago,” she said. “There are more women, and the industry will need more voices at the table to get them to a successful tomorrow.”
