Elanco appoints Jamie Preston as Chief People Officer.

Elanco appoints Jamie Preston as Chief People Officer. 22 October 2026 Elanco Animal Health has appointed Jamie Preston as Executive Vice President and Chief People Officer, effective 3 November 2026. Preston brings 23 years of experience from Eli Lilly and will succeed Dave Kinard, who plans to retire at year-end. Elanco Animal Health has named Jamie Preston as its new Executive Vice President and Chief People Officer, following an extensive search. Preston will join the company on 3 November, succeeding Dave Kinard, who intends to retire at the end of 2026. Kinard will work closely with Preston during the transition to ensure continuity in the company's global human resources operations. Preston joins Elanco from Eli Lilly and Company, bringing 23 years of enterprise experience, including nearly two decades of human resources leadership. Most recently, she served as Vice President of HR, Global Compensation and Workforce Innovation, where she led the compensation and recognition team for Lilly's global workforce of more than 50,000 employees and spearheaded enterprise-wide AI and workforce modernization strategies. "Jamie is a visionary, dynamic leader with the speed and agility that defines Elanco. She has deep global experience across every facet of human resources, from organizational design and talent development to workforce innovation and digital transformation," said Jeff Simmons, President and CEO of Elanco. GLOBAL HR LEADERSHIP EXPERIENCE During her tenure at Lilly, which began in the sales organization, Preston held executive HR leadership roles across global markets. She served as Associate Vice President of HR across five Asia-Pacific markets-Australia, New Zealand, Taiwan, Korea and Hong Kong-where she supported the region's growth into a billion-dollar business hub. She also served as HR Director for Lilly Japan, supporting the research and development organization, led global people strategy for the Oncology Business Unit and supported key corporate and manufacturing functions.

DAVE KINARD TO RETIRE AT YEAR-END Kinard's retirement follows a career focused on organizational development and talent management. Since Elanco's transition from Lilly's animal health division to an independent publicly traded company, he has played a key role in shaping Elanco's global HR infrastructure, culture and employee experience. Kinard also oversaw the company's headquarters relocation from Greenfield to Indianapolis, including the establishment of the One Health Innovation District, a life sciences innovation hub anchored by Elanco and Purdue University. "Today our employee engagement is the highest since our IPO, backed by a culture and brand in a position of strength because of Dave's dedicated leadership and enduring contributions," added Simmons.
