Saba Belay Named Working Mother of the Year at Zoetis
Saba Belay, Director, Business Analytics, in Zoetis’ Parsippany,
N.J. global headquarters, was named the company’s Working Mother of
the Year. Saba has two young children: Abigail, 6 and Adam, 4.
A native of Ethiopia, Saba began her career with Zoetis in 2015,
and has played a key role in developing advanced data analytics
that help the company’s U.S. Commercial teams track sales
performance and gain valuable insights into customer purchasing
behavior. “My passion is figuring out how to be data-smart in order
to make good business decisions,” said Saba. “I'm always looking
for opportunities to make things better, easier, and faster.
Colleagues at Zoetis are really open-minded, so I am never afraid
to present new ideas."
Saba has a consistent record of high performance and
achievement. In her four years at Zoetis, she earned two promotions
and has been the recipient of many accolades, including the
company’s prestigious U.S. President’s Excellence Award. Saba has
also been instrumental in mentoring new colleagues, as well as
leading a Business Analytics internship program with graduate
students from Columbia University and Rutgers University.
“I feel very fortunate to work for a company that not only
encourages colleagues to take on new and exciting challenges to
grow their careers, but also offers mentorship and leadership
training opportunities that help them achieve their goals,” said
Saba. “I have had the privilege of being personally mentored by
executive team member Kristin Peck, who leads U.S. Operations,
Business Development and Strategy at Zoetis, and is a mom herself.
Kristin is committed to cultivating confident women leaders who
embrace their authenticity and lead positive change in the
business. I’m a living example of this. Many of the recent
accomplishments in my personal and professional life were made
possible because Kristin is a leader who firmly believes that
mentoring young employees drives success.”
