Andy Berry succeeds John Hall at Ricoh

Ricoh appoints Andy Berry as managing director of Ricoh Australia, following John Hall’s retirement from the position last month.

The company says that Berry joins with more than 25 years’ experience in the IT sector, some of which was within the printing sector. Berry has worked at Fuji Xerox and Xerox Europe, where he led the print hardware and software businesses, as well as business process outsourcing divisions.

Ricoh says Berry will be responsible for driving Ricoh’s transformational strategy and ensuring Ricoh’s operations in the Australian market are aligned with the global strategy.

Kazuhisa Goto, managing director of Ricoh Asia Pacific says, “Andy Berry joins Ricoh at a pivotal time in Australia’s business transformation.  As an accomplished whole-of-business leader he brings domain expertise and a proven track record of leading change while achieving solid growth.  Berry’s ability to lead with a clear vision backed by a unified team has made him the success he is today; his deep knowledge of global services and market trends will be integral in driving Ricoh forward in this age of the customer.  At the same time, his energetic and results driven style combined with his customer centric approach will strengthen Ricoh’s transformational journey."

Berry says, “The traditional print market continues to offer a significant opportunity for Ricoh, and when coupled with a comprehensive set of workplace solutions and services across information technology services, print and document management, we are enabling customers to change their traditional ways of working.

“I admire the Ricoh approach to understanding the changing needs of its customers and how it then applies innovation.  At the same time, the company balances the strength of its global scale with belief in the local team and the importance of their enduring relationships with customers, channels and partners. I am excited at the opportunity to lead Ricoh Australia and to help realise the talent and energy of its people.”
