BIO
Maciej Kaniowski has built a career turning complexity into clarity and operations into enterprise value. Most recently serving as Chief Operating Officer at Avon, he held a series of global leadership roles, including building and leading end-to-end operations and driving transformation across highly dynamic, multi-market environments.
His early experience includes leading strategic change at Mars Petcare and delivering results in fast-paced, private equity-backed companies, consistently operating at the intersection of strategy, execution, and culture.
He leads from the front – breaking siloes, mobilising teams, and building systems that turn vision into velocity. His leadership philosophy is clear: ownership over hierarchy, action over analysis, and culture as the operating system, not a side project.
