Ukonwa Ojo is the new Global Chief Marketing Officer and Senior Vice President of beauty giant MAC Cosmetics.

After three years, Ojo will be leaving her role as Chief Marketing Officer for Coty Consumer Beauty where she had to oversee brands like Cover Girl and Sally Hansen.

She made the announcement on Instagram saying that she has always wanted to work with MAC Cosmetics.

When I was in business school (circa 2003), I wanted to switch from a 6-year career in Finance to Marketing/Brand Management. A very common question many companies asked in brand management interviews was… Interviewers: Can you give me an example of a brand you think is marketed well? Me: M.A.C Cosmetics

Ojo has previously worked with high-end brands including Clairol, Rimmel, Katy Perry Parfums, and Nautica.

In her post on Instagram, she expresses her gratitude to Cover Girl and Coty Consumer Beauty for “an amazing career a girl could dream of.”

She also thanks MAC for bringing her on board.

To my M.A.C family, thank you for welcoming me so warmly. ME LOVE YOU LONG TIME!!!

BIG MOOD! ?? Y’all, this was the hardest secret to keep because I was so dang excited. Let me tell you why. When I was in business school (circa 2003), I wanted to switch from a 6 year career in Finance to Marketing/Brand Management. A very common question many companies asked in brand management interviews was… Interviewers: Can you give me an example of a brand you think is marketed well? Me: M.A.C Cosmetics That was because among many reasons, M.A.C chose to serve me and many others when most beauty brands thought we weren’t worth investing in. So imagine how awesome it is 16 years later to be named the Global Chief Marketing Officer and Senior Vice President for @maccosmetics The career journey to this place is not one I could have planned or orchestrated. So excuse me while I take a praise break ????????????Thank you so much God for orchestrating the most amazing career a girl could dream of. Thank you to my @covergirl and @cotyinc family for 3 incredible years. To my M.A.C family, thank you for welcoming me so warmly. ME LOVE YOU LONG TIME!!! ? ? #wontHEdoit #allthingsarepossible #trusttheprocess #somebodypinchme #dreamjob ?: @macpro @chantel_m_mua ?: @ruvileider
