7R appoints new CFO and expands Management Board
7R has appointed Katarzyna Różycka as Chief Financial Officer and Member of the Management Board. In her new role, she will be responsible for shaping the company’s financial policy and overseeing its finance, accounting and controlling functions. The appointment further strengthens 7R’s capabilities in financial management and capital-raising as the company continues to expand its operations in Poland, the Czech Republic and Germany.
Katarzyna Różycka joins 7R with more than 19 years of experience in financial management, M&A transactions, corporate governance, transformation of corporate groups, and implementation of technology solutions supporting finance functions. She has extensive experience in managing the finances of multi-entity corporate structures, gained in an international business environment. Before joining 7R, she served as finance director at companies within the Polenergia Group and as CFO of the Röhlig Suus Logistics Group, a logistics operator active across Central and Eastern Europe and Central Asia. She also worked at PKP Cargo, where, as Group Controlling Director, she was responsible for areas including management and stock exchange reporting, planning and budgeting, and corporate governance. Earlier in her career, she gained professional experience at EY and Deloitte, both in Poland and internationally.
At 7R, Katarzyna Różycka will be responsible for shaping and implementing the company’s financial policy and managing the division encompassing finance, accounting and controlling. One of her key priorities will be to further align financial processes with the growing scale of 7R’s operations and to support the implementation of the company’s business strategy across its three European markets.
“7R is in a phase of dynamic growth, which requires both significant flexibility in raising capital and the highest standards of financial management,” said Andrzej Wroński, CEO of 7R. “Katarzyna has an excellent understanding of how to build a finance function that not only safeguards an organization’s stability, but also actively supports its growth and business decision-making. Her managerial maturity, strategic perspective and ability to combine a financial viewpoint with the needs of the wider organisation will provide important support as we enter the next stages of our growth. I am confident that her approach to collaboration and team-building will further strengthen 7R.”
Katarzyna Różycka is a graduate of SGH Warsaw School of Economics, where she studied finance and banking, and of the Leadership Psychology Academy, run in cooperation between Values Consulting and the Warsaw University of Technology Business School.
