Talia Hicks
Business Manager - Food and Fibre
Since joining AgResearch in 2017, I’ve transitioned from scientist to connector. My background is in materials and process engineering, having contributed to the R&D supporting NZ’s circular bioeconomy for a number of years.
Since 2023, I’ve focused on building strong connections between our scientists, the primary industries and government. In my current role as a Business Manager, I work closely with our Ag:LCA life cycle assessment team to support the needs of our primary industries.
