In February this year, Florian Ruckert (photo) has joined the management board of Germany’s JUMP House Holding GmbH and its related subsidiaries, leading the group’s business at the side of company founders Till Walz and Christoph Ahmadi. JUMP House is currently operating seven trampoline & activity parks throughout Germany, including JUMP House Cologne, which was opened in 2016 (cf. EAP News from Oct 17th, 2016), and which is one of their largest facilities up to date.
Florian Ruckert looks back on over 20 years of professional experience in the fields of marketing, strategy and general management. After several senior management positions with German RTL Television (working for the related businesses Super RTL and IP Deutschland), Ruckert has been serving as Chairman of the Board of Radio Marketing Service (RMS), successfully leading the company through change processes. Together with business partner Oliver Eckart he founded the Joint Forces Strategy Consulting agency, offering consulting services for mid-size and start-up companies in the media, brand, digital commerce & entertainment businesses. By joining the JUMP House Group, he gave up his active consulting role.
"JUMP House is a unique success story with outstanding growth potential. In just four years, the founders and the team have succeeded in creating an extremely strong brand in the field of indoor entertainment. Continuing this success story and adding new chapters is a great challenge that I am very much looking forward to," said Ruckert.
Today, the JUMP House group employs around 650 people. New projects, further development of the existing attractions portfolio and the opening of further indoor leisure facilities at new locations are already being planned. (eap)
