Kainos expands its Workday services operations in Europe with
senior appointment and new office in Germany
Kainos appoints Mr. Rainer Maier to lead expanding Workday
services business in DACH region
Belfast, London, Frankfurt - 6 March 2017 - Kainos Group plc, a
leading provider of Digital Services and Platforms, announces today
that it has opened a new office in Germany to help accelerate the
expansion of its fast-growing Workday services business in Germany,
Austria and Switzerland (DACH region). Based in Frankfurt, Kainos
Worksmart GmbH will serve the company's customer base for Workday
Inc., a leader in enterprise cloud applications for finance and
human resources.
The company has appointed Mr. Rainer Maier, a former Siemens AG
executive, as country manager to oversee Kainos's growth in the
region. Immediately prior to joining Kainos, Mr. Maier was DACH
Country Manager at DayNine, where he established and led a
successful Workday services practice.
"We've seen significant traction throughout the DACH region and
our new German office is strategic for us as we expand our presence
across Europe," said Malachy Smith, head of the WorkSmart division
in Kainos. "Rainer's appointment gives Kainos a wealth of
experience in building global services for enterprises and
complements our existing successful operation in the
Netherlands."
"This is an exciting time for Workday and Kainos, especially as
German, Austrian and Swiss enterprises are increasingly faced with
the real challenges of doing business globally," said Mr. Maier.
"Successful finance and HR transformations are often complicated by
regional market requirements and regulations. Kainos offers the
best of both worlds - a partner that is locally experienced and
present in key global markets."
