IMAGE Smurfit Scholar Lucy Chadwick shares how an MBA is setting her up to make real change in the animal pharmaceutical industry

IMAGE Smurfit Scholar Lucy Chadwick shares how an MBA is setting her up to make real change in the animal pharmaceutical industryGlobal Partnerships Manager at Forte Healthcare and current IMAGE Smurfit Scholar, Lucy Chadwick, shares how the Executive MBA is preparing her to make further strides in her already impressive career.

Having qualified from UCD in 2009, she initially worked in the UK as the recession meant jobs were hard to find. “I was considering what the options might be outside clinical practice for someone with a vet degree,” Lucy explains, “and really wanted to have a bigger impact on the overall animal health picture.”Her next steps were inspired by a chance encounter she had whilst at veterinary school.

“I’ve now been there nearly seven years, and in this time the business has continued to grow and change rapidly. I am extremely proud to have been responsible for launching Reconcile to the European market, helping to change the lives of thousands of dogs suffering from separation-related anxiety, which is at an all time high following the COVID-19 pandemic,” Lucy says.

As a UCD alumnus, she says there was never any question of where she would go for her MBA. “The school’s reputation, the global focus and the active diversity and inclusion programme really appealed to me,” she says. “I also had many acquaintances who were alumni of the Smurfit MBA program, so following deep discussions with them and attending MBA open days on campus, I was extremely clear it was my school of choice.

Although balancing the course with work is intense, Lucy says she has felt very supported, from course leaders and her employer. Living in Dublin 7 with her husband and two beloved border terriers, she has also made the most of attending in-person classes and events, all while still finding time to sing with her chamber choir.
