Downing joined Ricoh Europe in 2005. She most recently held the role of COO, where she was responsible for the company’s operations.

The collective dedication and talent of our people is what sets us apart. I look forward to demonstrating this further as we continue to lead change at work and support our customers in boosting their capabilities, digital ambitions and growth.”
