Megan Gill
Chief Strategy Officer
Megan Gill serves as the Chief Strategy Officer at Dalkia US, where she leads with a powerful combination of vision, strategic insight, and a steadfast commitment to innovation and sustainability. A proud New England native, Megan’s professional journey reflects her ability to blend sharp business acumen with a deep-rooted belief in the transformative power of people and purpose-driven leadership.
Megan’s career began with an unexpected start in pre-veterinary medicine, inspired by her lifelong passion for horses. However, her entrepreneurial instincts and drive for independence led her to pivot toward business. She earned her undergraduate degree from the University of Connecticut Business School and later received a Master of Science from Fordham University. Her academic journey shaped her approach to business through a creative and strategic lens, specializing in marketing not as mere aesthetics, but as a powerful engine for sustainable growth.
Early in her career at a boutique marketing and consulting firm in New York, Megan learned to approach marketing as a business development discipline. Collaborating with major global brands like American Express, she developed a reputation for aligning marketing and sales functions to drive holistic business outcomes. Her ability to reverse-engineer growth strategies and foster synergy within organizations quickly set her apart. During this time, public speaking became a key aspect of her work—a platform she embraced to share knowledge and inspire innovation.
After stepping back briefly to raise her eldest daughter, Megan re-entered the workforce with a fresh focus, joining the rapidly evolving energy sector, where she recognized the momentum around consolidation and the urgent need for sustainability solutions. Her work ultimately earned national recognition and speaking invitations at major industry events. In 2014, she founded Gill Marketing Group, a venture that underscored her entrepreneurial spirit and her talent for building strong, value-aligned client relationships.
Today, as Chief Strategy Officer at Dalkia, Megan is responsible for steering long-term strategic thinking, identifying growth opportunities, and supporting innovation across all areas of the business. She plays a pivotal role in all domestic mergers and acquisitions and works to ensure Dalkia US is fully aligned with the global vision of its parent company, EDF. Her ultimate ambition is to help grow Dalkia into a $200 million sustainability leader in the built environment, expanding its influence across regions while maintaining a mission-driven, people-first culture.
Megan is a devoted mother to her daughters Molly, a passionate pre-law student, and Maisy, a gifted equestrian and athlete with a heart full of compassion. She is also a proud advocate for women in energy. Having often been the only woman at the table early in her career, she now finds purpose in mentoring emerging female leaders and celebrating the rise of powerful women across the industry—including Dalkia’s CEO, Sylvie. For Megan, leadership isn’t just about building companies—it’s about uplifting people and forging a better, more sustainable future for all.
