ERP consulting expert Kristian Rude to head new Copenhagen

Nordic and Baltic regions
Belfast, London, Copenhagen - 24 October 2017 - Kainos Group
plc, a leading provider of Digital Services and Platforms,
announces today that it has opened a new office in Copenhagen to
meet growing demand for its Workday services business across
Europe. Kainos Copenhagen will serve the company's customer base
for Workday Inc., a leader in enterprise cloud applications for
finance and human resources.
This new office marks a further advance in the expansion of
Kainos' fast-growing Workday services business in Europe and
follows the opening of an office in Germany earlier this year, the
fourth country the division has expanded into outside the UK. This
coincides with the Group reaching 100 customers for Kainos Smart,
its innovative product that helps clients automate testing of their
Workday configuration, both before and after initial
implementation.
Kristian Rude, an experienced ERP and Cloud Consultant , has
been appointed as the head of the new office to oversee Kainos's
growth in the Nordic and Baltic regions. Mr Rude brings a wealth of
leadership and technical experience to the role, along with a
strong network and understanding of the business landscape in the
regions, having worked in the Nordic and Baltic regions for over
twenty years.
Malachy Smith, head of Kainos' WorkSmart division commented:
"This new office is another sign of progress in our Workday
services business which is gaining real momentum across Europe. We
have already established a solid pipeline in the region which we
will be better placed to service with our on the ground presence.
Kristian's ERP experience and credentials, not to mention his local
knowledge and network, gives Kainos a strategic advantage and will
enable the business to continue to drive momentum."
Kristian Rude added: "I believe Workday is the best cloud
technology in the market, with major growth potential in the Nordic
and Baltic regions. Kainos is unique among Workday partners with a
winning culture, a competitive delivery model, solid references,
unique tools and excellent people. Therefore, I am excited to have
been given the opportunity to spearhead Kainos' Workday operation
in these regions."
