Griffin Capital Partners has announced two senior executive promotions as the company continues to grow its presence in the private equity and real estate markets in Central and Eastern Europe. Piotr Fijołek and Tomasz Mrowczyk, currently Senior Partners, have been promoted to the positions of Co-Managing Partners. The position is new in the structure and has been created especially to appreciate the contribution of the two managers to the growth of the company.


Piotr Fijołek has been associated with Griffin from the beginning of his professional career. He is a top Merger & Acquisition expert with 15 years of operational experience exclusively dedicated to real estate and private equity. His track record contains more than 100 successful transactions, with a total volume exceeding €3.5 billion. For over a decade, he has orchestrated a number of flagship Griffin’s projects, including the takeover of the so-called M1 portfolio and acquisition of a majority stake in Murapol, a leading Polish property development company, which he is currently overseeing as Deputy Chairman of the Supervisory Board. Currently, he is heading several investment platforms, among them Murapol and Chariot, projects with a GAV exceeding €1.0+ billion.

Tomasz Mrowczyk, the current Senior Partner, is a financial markets specialist with more than 15 years professional experience. At Griffin Capital Partners he is responsible for the development of the private equity arm. He has been instrumental in Griffin’s entry into the energy sector and has overseen among others the investment into PAD-RES - the renewable energy platform. Before joining Griffin, Tomasz worked at PZU Group for 11 years, where he headed the private equity, venture capital and private credit businesses, including Group Investment Committee capacity. At PZU Group Tomasz originated, structured and executed over 100 transactions, with an aggregate value exceeding €5 billion across different capital structures. Tomasz started his career at the Warsaw office of Ernst & Young Corporate Finance in the M&A and Valuation team.

“Piotr and Tomasz have been invaluable assets to Griffin, and a tremendous help, offering their vast knowledge and many years of experience that covers all key areas of Griffin’s interest. As we continue to grow our company and increase our European presence it is important to have a strong team of experts led by real leaders. I have no doubt about their ability to succeed in the new roles.” said Nebil Senman, Managing Partner at Griffin Capital Partners.

“Our company has observed significant growth in recent years, becoming the largest of its kind in Poland, demonstrating incredible potential. We are happy to see how our team of talented market experts has been developing which allows for Griffin to engage in even more investment opportunities.” said Maciej Dyjas, Managing Partner at Griffin Capital Partners.
