Medius, a leading provider of AP Automation and wider spend management solutions, announces the appointment of Matt Rhodus as VP of Business Development & Strategic Initiatives.
Rhodus joins from Oracle NetSuite, where he spent eight years in senior leadership, business development and strategy, and solution sales, rising to Senior Director of Go-To-Market & Strategic Initiatives in March 2019. Prior to that, he led Brand Solutions at IBM for Smarter Commerce & Industry Solutions. His expertise includes business development, sales, and marketing, specializing in SaaS and enterprise software.
In his new role, Rhodus will be responsible for delivering the Go-To-Market strategy for Medius’s cross-functional initiatives to include helping establish and grow Medius’s robust ecosystem of partnerships with ERP and technology partners around the world. He will be reporting into CSO Branden Jenkins, who joined Medius in August 2021, after the pair first combined at Oracle NetSuite.
