GTC has announced changes to the leadership of its Polish operations. From July 2026, the business in Poland will be overseen through a matrix management structure. Danny Bercovich will be responsible for the retail segment, while the office business will be led locally by Łukasz Jarzyło, Commercial Director, working under the oversight of Ziv Gigi, who is responsible for the office segment at the Group level. GTC's matrix organisation combines local market responsibility with Group-level oversight of key business lines across Bulgaria, Romania, Hungary, Serbia and Croatia.


"The changes we are introducing will bring our Polish operations closer to the Group's business platforms, enabling greater collaboration, faster decision making and use of expertise from across the organisation," said Botond Rencz, CEO of GTC Group.

The office business will be coordinated at Group level by Ziv Gigi, who has been with GTC since 2008 and has held senior leadership roles including CFO and Country Manager in several SEE markets. "Occupiers are placing increasing emphasis on operational efficiency, flexibility and user experience. Our goal is to ensure our office properties meet these expectations while creating long-term value for tenants, investors and local communities," said Ziv Gigi, Executive Director Central and Eastern Europe – Office Assets. In Poland, the office business will be led by Łukasz Jarzyło, whose role is being expanded to Commercial Director. He will continue to be responsible for leasing, asset management and technical operations across GTC's office portfolio, which comprises approximately 200,000 sqm across six cities. "My priority will be to further strengthen relationships with our tenants and ensure we continue delivering workplaces that meet the evolving needs of our customers," said Łukasz Jarzyło.

Danny Bercovich has been with GTC for over 17 years and has led the Group's retail business across all its markets, previously serving as Country Manager in Bulgaria and Romania. At the local level in Poland, the retail structure will remain unchanged: Julita Kubalska will continue as Head of Retail Leasing and Director of Galeria Północna, while Anna Borecka will remain Director of Galeria Jurajska. "Poland remains one of the most mature and competitive real estate markets in the region. I look forward to working closely with our teams and business partners to further strengthen GTC's position in Poland," said Danny Bercovich, Executive Director Central and Eastern Europe – Retail Assets.

Bercovich will also assume responsibility for GTC's business in Poland, succeeding Agnieszka Ciupak, under whom the company delivered initiatives related to portfolio management and operational development over the past three years.
