De Beers chief trade and industry officer Feriel Zerouki will leave her role at the end of October after 20 years with the company.
During her time with De Beers, Zerouki, who is also a member of the miner’s executive committee, led the launch of the company’s diamond-tracking program, Tracr, and GemFair, which advanced responsible sourcing in the diamond industry, De Beers said last week. Those initiatives helped strengthen consumer confidence and set new benchmarks for transparency and sustainability, De Beers explained.
Zerouski is also the current president of the World Diamond Council (WDC), which represents the industry at the Kimberley Process (KP). She will continue in that position until the end of May.
“Feriel has played a pivotal role in establishing and upholding the highest standards of integrity and provenance within De Beers and across the global diamond industry,” said De Beers CEO Al Cook. “Her strategic insight and leadership have contributed meaningfully to initiatives that will leave a lasting impact on the sector.”
