Marie Wright Email & Phone Number

I am passionate about people and food. I enjoy leading a team of talented innovators who create great tasting & nutritious food. I love competition, I thought I prefer to be an individual contributor. But here I am, a leader of a team of 900 scientists, in a Fortune 50 company that is focused on Food Security, Innovation, and Sustainability! I may have landed my dream job.I lead the best team in the industry. Best? Yes indeed , a team powering the engine of growth achieving record win rates. A team that spans across multiple segments both animal and human. A team that delivers double digit growth year on year.I love people which is good because my job involves a lot of them. People are complicated but that fascinates me. Building a culture where people can grow and find their true potential is important to me. I love team culture and recognize early on that diversity of thinking may be uncomfortable but ultimately leads to better innovation and successI love to teach which is no surprise coming from a family of teachers. I have trained many flavorists and was the mastermind behind the ADM Academy which has now expanded across the world and across all the functions.I love to have fun. I am passionate about fashion, architecture, real estate, skiing, running, swimming, my gorgeous kids, holidays in France, my UK family, being English, gin & tonic, the NY Rangers hockey team and Manchester United.
