Dagmar Jones
I have worked for Astrazeneca (formerly ICI) for over 35 years, starting my career within R&D and gaining my Chemistry (BSc Hons) degree from Manchester. I then moved into Business Strategy roles within areas such as Procurement (supporting Global R&D, Learning & Development, HR, Finance, Legal services & Global Operations), Business development, Outsourcing and Global Supply Chain & Strategy. In my current role I am a Senior Director accountable for strategy across a global manufacturing network. The roles undertaken within my career have provided me with a great opportunity for global travel and to work with colleagues across many different geographies and cultures.
I live in Cheshire with my husband and two teenage sons and enjoy supporting the local community. I am Treasurer for Davenham Junior Football Club (DJFC), support 1st Davenham Scouts whenever I can (my husband is leader) and look after flower beds around the village for DJFC and Scouts. I enjoy the outdoor life, such as gardening, hiking, wildlife, etc., and also a good book, often chosen by Davenham Book Club of which I am a member.
