Brico Dépôt will be led by the head of group sourcing Laurent Vittoz from March 15.
Kingfisher said chief supply chain officer Martin Lee will depart at the end of May, while group general counsel Elizabeth Messud will join the executive team.
Kingfisher chief executive Thierry Garnier said: “As we enter the next phase of the ‘Powered by Kingfisher’ strategy, accelerating investment for growth, we are strengthening our leadership team in a number of important functions.
“We are particularly delighted that these appointments are internal, reflecting the management strength across the business and our commitment to the development of our teams.
“I’d like to express my sincere thanks to each of the leaders for the contribution they have made and look forward to working together in the next phase of our growth.”
