Sirbu's appointment would be effective from July 7, 2014, Avon India said in a statement.
He would be responsible for the strategic growth and sustainable increase of Avon's market share here, it further added.
Sirbu had worked with Avon in central and Eastern Europe for 12 years. Eventually he became Country Manager for Moldova and Serbia and Montenegro and then moved out for a brief period.
"His extensive knowledge and global experience will help develop and implement business strategies to meet the company's growth, market share and profitability objectives," the company said.
