The people behind MESKRU
Alexander Kruse and Manuel Mesmer founded MESKRU in 2023 with a clear conviction: Atlassian consulting must be rooted in practical experience. Alexander brings deep ITSM expertise from the corporate sector, while Manuel brings many years of experience in managing complex projects. Together, they cover the entire spectrum, from strategic consulting and structured project planning to ITSM implementation.
As co-CEOs, both share responsibility for the company, its clients, and its team. They are personally involved in projects and stand behind the quality that MESKRU delivers.
