Travel and expense management systems company KDS has hired a sales and marketing chief from IT giant Oracle Corporation.
Dean Forbes (31) becomes executive vice president for worldwide sales and marketing.
He was group vice president for Oracle’s project and portfolio management solutions on a worldwide basis.

KDS CEO Yves Weisselberger said: “Dean represents an exceptional addition to the KDS team.
“He was previously the youngest Oracle vice president, where his track record was stellar.
