Angelo Bonamici

COO | 25 years running operations from £200M to €1.8B across 16 countries | ex-HAVI, Compass Group (

About Me

Most recently I was CEO Italy and VP South Europe at HAVI, with full P&L responsibility for a €1.8B integrated supply chain and logistics business — 1,200 people across five markets, serving more than 25 clients in parallel, McDonald's, KFC and Starbucks among them, under an owner running private-equity disciplines of return horizon and reporting cadence. While there I led a generative AI programme with Ammagamma, later acquired by Accenture, connecting client demand planning to supplier production forecasting in a single S&OP loop. Before HAVI I was COO EMEA at Compass Group for a company that didn't exist until we built it — a new entity created to run Google's entire food business across Europe, the Middle East and Africa. £200M revenue, 900 people, 16 countries, 35% organic growth. Earlier, ten years at Starwood across Rome, Brussels and Dubai: €1M in annual profit improvement across 60+ luxury properties, and a $100M+ capital portfolio covering the renovation of the Gritti Palace, Alfonso XIII and the St. Regis Florence. I started at EY in capital markets, taking companies through IPOs. What I'm useful for: operating model and org design, KPI and board reporting, cost and procurement restructuring, multi-market expansion, post-acquisition integration. Italian, English, Spanish.
