Eli Lilly CFO Anat Ashkenazi will become Alphabet’s new chief financial officer effective July 31, Google’s parent company announced Tuesday, almost a year after Alphabet first announced current CFO Ruth Porat would move to a new role as president and chief investment officer.
Ashkenazi has had a 23-year career at Eli Lilly, which in a separate release confirmed her departure.
“We’re very pleased to have found such a strong CFO, with a track record of strategic focus on long-term investment to fuel innovation and growth,” Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai said in a release.
Ashkenazi had previously served as chief financial officer for several of Eli Lilly’s businesses and will continue to serve on the pharmaceutical company’s executive committee until her departure.
Porat had nearly three-decade career as as an investment banker at Morgan Stanley, culminating as its CFO, before joining Google in 2015.
