As of 1 May 2026, Andrzej Gałkowski has assumed the role of Country Managing Partner at KPMG in Poland. The company’s new leader has spent more than 25 years building KPMG’s position in the financial sector — as head of the banking sector and adviser to the largest financial institutions in Poland and abroad, and in recent years also as the Partner responsible for the development of AI services in Poland and the CEE region.
In his new role, he will focus on the further development of advisory and technology services, as well as strengthening KPMG’s capabilities in digital transformation and AI for clients across different sectors of the economy — all built on a solid foundation of audit, tax and legal services.
Poland remains a key market for KPMG in the Central and Eastern European region. At the same time, more and more clients — companies operating in several countries at once — expect their adviser to provide answers at the level of the entire region, not only locally. KPMG is responding to these needs and, within CEE, is developing its business and technology advisory offering, where the scale and complexity of challenges are growing the fastest.
The firm is also steadily strengthening its position in audit, tax and legal advisory, areas in which it consistently ranks among the market leaders. Across all these areas, KPMG operates based on a sector-focused model — experts from different disciplines join forces around a specific industry, bringing knowledge and experience tailored to its particular characteristics.
“The advisory services market is undergoing a fundamental change. Clients are less and less often looking for an expert in just one area. They expect a partner who understands their business, technology and regulations at the same time, and who will share responsibility for the outcome. Digital transformation, broadly understood security, risk management or international expansion are, in practice, one project, not four separate ones. Our answer is a multidisciplinary model — because business challenges today are complex, and only organisations that combine scale with flexibility can truly meet them. Artificial intelligence accelerates many of these processes, but it creates value only when it is embedded in the competencies and responsible judgement of the people behind it. This is where our real advantage lies. I am fortunate to be able to rely on one of the best teams of professionals — people whose knowledge, experience and commitment are the foundation of what we offer clients and the best guarantee of what we want to achieve,” says Andrzej Gałkowski, Country Managing Partner at KPMG in Poland.
Andrzej Gałkowski joined KPMG in 1999. For more than 25 years, he has participated in some of the most complex transformations of Polish and international financial institutions — from strategic advisory and technology projects, through the implementation of regulatory requirements, to the development of comprehensive risk management models for the largest banks in Poland and abroad.
For several years, he has led KPMG’s AI advisory practice in Poland and the CEE region. He is a graduate of the SGH Warsaw School of Economics and the University of Derby, where he completed an MSc in International Finance and Investment. He also sits on the Programme Council of the European Financial Congress.
At the same time, as of 1 May 2026, Tomasz Wiśniewski, Partner and Head of the Valuations Team at KPMG in the CEE region, has taken on the role of Chief Operating Officer at KPMG in Poland. In his new position, he will be responsible for the firm’s operational efficiency — coordinating internal processes, ensuring effective resource management and developing an organisation capable of responding quickly to the changing needs of clients, employees and the market.
Tomasz Wiśniewski is a Partner at KPMG in Poland with more than 25 years of experience in transaction advisory. He leads a team of business valuation specialists across Central and Eastern Europe, specialising in advisory services related to measuring and building value. He is a graduate of the Warsaw University of Technology and the Warsaw University of Technology Business School, where he completed an MBA. He holds FCCA and CBV qualifications. He lectures on business valuation at the SGH Warsaw School of Economics and Kozminski University. He has also completed the Academy of Leadership Psychology.
