She is currently Sinn Féin’s northern Education Spokesperson in the Assembly.[3] She is a graduate from Ulster University with a degree in Community Development and is a former manager of Hillcrest Trust, a community centre in the Waterside area of Derry.[4] She played a key role in setting up a charity, Pink Ladies Cancer Support Group, who lobbied for the delivery of the North-West Cancer Centre at Altnagelvin Hospital in Derry.[5] ControversyMullan is also a director of Waterside Neighbourhood Partnership, which is a community group based in Derry. The organisation was found guilty in 2017 of having unlawfully discriminated against a job applicant based on political opinion.[6] The organisation was ordered to pay £11,000 to the applicant, who was the highest-scoring candidate in the interviews.[6] Giving evidence at the tribunal, Mullan revealed during cross-examination that an interview panelist informed her that they "had been bullied" into giving a better score. The tribunal said Mullan's evidence "lacked credibility".[6] References1. ^{{cite web|last1=Madden|first1=Andrew|title=Sinn Féin co-opt new MLAs in Foyle and West Tyrone|url=http://www.irishnews.com/news/northernirelandnews/2017/06/13/news/karen-mullan-sinn-fe-in-select-community-worker-as-new-foyle-mla-1053185|website=The Irish News}} {{s-start}}{{s-par|ni/ass}}{{s-bef|before=Elisha McCallion}}{{s-ttl|title=MLA for Foyle|years=2017–present}}{{s-inc}}{{s-end}}{{Sinn Féin}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Mullan, Karen}}{{NorthernIreland-politician-stub}}2. ^{{cite news|last1=Now|first1=Derry|title=New Foyle MLA Karen Mullan has celebrated her first day at Stormont|url=https://www.derrynow.com/news/new-foyle-mla-karen-mullan-celebrated-first-day-stormont/169483|work=Derry Now}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.derrydaily.net/2017/07/21/mla-mullan-named-as-sinn-feins-new-education-spokesperson|title=MLA Mullan named as Sinn Féin's new education spokesperson|publisher=Derry Daily|date=21 July 2017|accessdate=20 November 2017}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.hillcresttrust.com/karen-mullan|title=Karen Mullan|publisher=Hillcrest Trust|accessdate=20 November 2017}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.londonderrysentinel.co.uk/news/health/pink-ladies-branch-out-1-3190419|title=Pink Ladies branch out|publisher=Sentinel|date=27 October 2011|accessdate=20 November 2017}} 6. ^1 2 {{cite news|last1=Hughes|first1=Brendan|title=Sinn Féin MLA is director of group found to have discriminated against job applicant|url=http://www.irishnews.com/news/2017/06/14/news/new-sinn-fe-in-mla-heads-community-group-that-lost-employment-case-1054451/|work=The Irish News|language=en}} 6 : Living people|Sinn Féin MLAs|Northern Ireland MLAs 2017–|Female members of the Northern Ireland Assembly|Politicians from Derry (city)|1976 births |
