Alessandra de Dreuille is currently the Meals Growth Director for Heinz, with P&L responsibility for the Beanz, Soup, Pasta and Baby Food portfolio in the UK (approx. US$700m). She leads a cross-functional team of about 40 people across marketing, commercial and R&D. She also sits on the Board of Trustees of the Institute of Grocery Distribution (IGD) in the UK.

She has been at Kraft Heinz for 10 years, with a strong track record in marketing and commercial roles across different categories and within both regional and local teams.

Most recently, she spent two years leading the HR team for Northern Europe, taking engagement from an all-time low post-pandemic to close to best-in-class UK benchmarks and rolling out the culture-changing Living Leader programme across the entire business.

Half-Italian, half-French, she has lived in London, UK, since 2013, where she met her husband and decided to raise her two young children.
