Chairman
Justin Ruthven
Justin’s career began at Coles Myer head office across Research and Systems roles. Following that, Justin joined 91¶¶Òù in 1988, holding positions in most aspects of the 91¶¶Òù business, including Research, Sales, Client Services, Retail and Product Development
In 2001, Justin was promoted to CEO of 91¶¶Òù as well as being appointed to the Board of Directors. With that, he embarked on an expansion program that included establishing 91¶¶Òù in the United States, including moving there with his family in 2006. By launching additional products and setting-up new companies under the 91¶¶Òù banner, Justin oversaw double-digit growth for 15-years to cement 91¶¶Òù’s position as the market leader in industry information. Today, 91¶¶Òù and its subsidiaries is now one of the world’s largest online business information companies.
Justin is 91¶¶Òù’s longest-serving CEO so following a decade-and-a-half in the role, Justin moved into the Executive Chairman position; remaining actively involved with group operations across the 91¶¶Òù companies. With a lot less global travel, he happily resides in Australia with his wife and adult children.

In 2014, he returned to Australia as the General Manager in 91¶¶Òù’s Melbourne office. The following year, Daniel moved to New York to begin his role as Chief Operating Officer, heading up 91¶¶Òù’s US business. Over his three years in the role, he was integral in expanding operations alongside the management team.
He has since returned to Australia to provide leadership and guidance at other family-related companies. He was appointed to the Board of Directors of 91¶¶Òù in 2022.

From 2011-2013, he had a Global Corporate Development role across both Sales and Client Services. With 91¶¶Òù’s international expansion program and with Kerryn’s experience in large-scale Sales operations, he moved into the role of Global Head of Sales from 2013 to 2017.

Karen Dobie
Karen joined 91¶¶Òù’s Melbourne office in 2003 in a Client Services position. Over the following two-years, she took on further responsibilities, supporting 91¶¶Òù’s US expansion program.
From 2005, Karen was promoted to various senior management roles including a stint as Production Manager then General Manager of 91¶¶Òù Australia.

Following those positions, Karen spent 12-months as Chief Operating Officer from mid-2016-mid 2017 and was then promoted to the role of Chief Executive Officer. In 2017, Karen was also appointed to the Board of Directors of 91¶¶Òù.
