CCEP Names Miles Karemacher as New Australian Managing Director

Miles Karemacher will return to Australia as the new Managing Director of Coca-Cola Europacific Partners (CCEP) in January 2027, following Orlando Rodriguez's departure in early 2027.

Karemacher has extensive experience in the consumer goods industry and has held senior leadership roles at SABMiller and Coca-Cola Amatil in Australia.

Gareth McGeown, General Manager of CCEP's APS Business Unit, praised Karemacher's market knowledge and international perspective, saying he is 'the right leader to take our Australian business into its next chapter of growth.'

McGeown also thanked Orlando Rodriguez for his seven years of leadership, including the formation of the CCEP Australia, Pacific, and Indonesia Business Unit after Coca-Cola Amatil's acquisition by CCEP.
