Omnevo has announced the appointment of Dr. Jan Christoph Meyer as Chief Executive Officer, effective in April.
Meyer brings more than 20 years of international leadership experience across operations, supply chain and digital transformation in the aviation, transport, and food service industries.
He has held senior leadership roles with organisations including Lufthansa Group, LSG Group and Deutsche Bahn, where he led large-scale operational transformation programmes, supply redesigns and enterprise technology initiatives.
Meyer is recognized for combining strategic leadership with operational execution, building high-performing international teams, and delivering measurable improvements in efficiency, profitability, and growth.
"I am excited to join Omnevo at a time when airlines, rail operators and airports are rethinking how retail, ecommerce and onboard services can work together to create better passenger experiences and stronger commercial performance," said Meyer. "Omnevo’s end‑to‑end platform and strong industry expertise creates a unique opportunity to help travel operators modernise their retail ecosystems and unlock new ancillary revenue potential."
As CEO, Meyer will focus on accelerating Omnevo’s profitable growth, strengthening its end‑to‑end retail platform capabilities and supporting travel operators in connecting ecommerce, onboard retail, and logistics into one integrated retail ecosystem.
"Jan Christoph possesses a unique combination of operational depth, digital fluency, and global perspective, enabling him to navigate complex delivery projects with precision to deliver transformational value for aviation and rail customers," said Tom Fitzgerald, Managing Director at Ventiga Capital Partners.
Omnevo’s Advisory Board would also like to extend its sincerest gratitude to Peter Coelho, who served as Interim CEO during the recent period of leadership change. Coelho will return to his role as Chief Operating Officer, continuing to manage Omnevo’s operations and customer delivery teams.
Meyer will officially assume the role in April and will meet customers and partners at the World Travel Catering & Onboard Services Expo (WTCE) in Hamburg from April 14 to 16.
