Ms Downing will end her three years as CEO of the organisation on March 31. She has spent 20 years at Ricoh Europe.

Mr Mills brings a wealth of experience and a proven track record of success to his new role. Having joined Ricoh in 1982, he has held various senior positions in the organisation, including Ricoh Europe chairman and CEO, where he played a pivotal role in driving the company’s transformation from print manufacturer to a leader in digital workplace.

Mr Mills said: “I am honoured to be taking on role of interim CEO at Ricoh Europe. I care passionately about the business, and I’m looking forward to working more closely again with our talented colleagues and valued customers and partners across the EMEA region. Moving forward, we will intensify our commitment to delivering exceptional value while empowering our customers to achieve their digital transformation ambitions.”
