February 14, 2019, 1cc appointed two new managing directors. Meike Ruoff (38) and Ivan Blazek (42) took over this position from Michael Krug (62). In 2015, Krug had sold his shares of 1cc to the holding company 4Square Return GmbH (4SR) and limited his contract until the end of April 2019.
Meike Ruoff studied business administration and has worked for 1cc and its predecessor companies since 2005. Since 2014, Ruoff was an authorized representative with 1cc. Ivan Blazek just as well studied business administration and spent most of his professional life in the European organisation of the Taiwanese contract manufacturer Foxconn, respectively its site in Pardubice in the Czech Republic.
During the past few years, both Ruoff and Blazek have gathered immense competence in the business areas of 1cc as well as 4SR Group, i.e. compliance and circular economy. Moreover, Blazek was intensely involved into the equity acquisition process of Foxconn owned company CircuTech with 4Square Return GmbH in the years 2017 and 2018. „The new managing couple has all prerequisites to successfully continue 1cc’s business path“, 4SR-owner Armin Kienle commented the shift. At the same time, Kienle thanked Krug for building up 1cc, and expand its business scope into a meanwhile globally active service provider and consulting firm for compliance topics.
