Polish corporate leadership changes

Overview

In late July 2026, Poland saw a series of high‑level executive turnovers across several major companies. On 21 July, the supervisory board of Polska Żegluga Bałtycka (Polferries) removed its president, Piotr Redmerski, and appointed board member Artur Witkowski as interim CEO while a permanent replacement is sought. The move was presented as necessary for the firm’s strategic development within the POLSCA joint venture that consolidates Polish ferry operators.

A week later, on 29 July, two additional firms announced new presidents. Waste‑management company Przedsiębiorstwo Gospodarki Odpadami in Kielce named Piotr Kłosiński as its new head, emphasizing operational stabilization and circular‑economy goals. Meanwhile, rail‑vehicle manufacturer H. Cegielski – Fabryki Pojazdów Szynowych appointed Piotr Wasilewski as president, highlighting ongoing large‑scale wagon production for PKP Intercity. These appointments reflect a broader pattern of leadership reshuffles within Polish industry during this period.
