'Helene's success during her more than 20-year career reflects her approach as a builder of multicultural, diverse teams and talent, her customer focus, and her passion for excellence and innovation,' says Ruth Kimmelshue, global lead for Cargill's animal nutrition and health enterprise.

Ms Ziv-Douki first joined the animal nutrition and health team in 2017 as the risk management and sourcing director for the company's aqua nutrition business where she developed her passion for all things aqua. It was in this role that Ms Ziv-Douki had the opportunity to interact with aqua nutrition teams around the world, gain a deep understanding of the business, and provide innovative solutions to Cargill's aqua nutrition customers, including creating a market-leading partnership with the insect industry.

'It's an honour and dream come true to come back to our world-class aqua nutrition team,' says Ms Ziv-Douki. 'I'm excited to lead the team into the future as we chart a bold new course for a sustainable aquaculture, making a positive impact for the planet while delivering superior products to our customers. I'm really looking forward to spending time with our customers to identify how we can best serve them and create new opportunities for success.'
