Margaret (Maggie) Johnson

After starting her working life in market research and then marketing at Lever Brothers and Unilever, Maggie moved into the childcare area with the Pre-School Playgroups Association. This overlapped with her raising her own three children. When the family relocated to Cambridge she began her 20 year stint as a Citizens Advice Bureau advisor and then supervisor, a job she loved. It was when grandchildren started arriving rather too rapidly that she felt the number of hours in the day no longer allowed for her new responsibilities. 

As a director of Kirly Ltd Maggie takes prime responsibility for organising the office and ensuring that the right things happen at the right time. She runs the weekly board meetings at which the company’s activities are reviewed. Maggie recently ceased underwriting at Lloyd’s but continues to take a keen interest in all areas of the business, particularly in the property development area today.
