In her new role, she will work closely with Yvonne Koh, managing director of Southeast Asia at MSL, and be responsible for overseeing the next stages of development for the Singapore office. 

Previously, Hanson spent three years at MSL Group in the US where she spearheaded global strategy and implementation for its client Procter & Gamble.
