Edi – Expense Intelligence has recruited Andreas Schneider, one of the most experienced leaders in the European business travel market. The long-time Head of Kuoni Business Travel is taking on the role of Senior Vice President of Business Development effective immediately. With this move, Edi – Expense Intelligence is strategically strengthening its position as a strategic travel and expense partner for travel management companies (TCMs) and international corporations. The goal is to seamlessly integrate travel, expense, and compliance.

Four Decades of Business Travel Expertise

Andreas Schneider has more than 40 years of international leadership experience in the business travel sector. Most recently, he headed the business travel division at DERTOUR SUISSE AG in Zurich and was responsible for the strategic development of the company’s Swiss business travel operations. Previously, he worked for DER Business Travel in Frankfurt and held leadership roles at American Express, I:FAO, TQ3 Travel Solutions in Spain, and Carlson Wagonlit Travel in Dubai. With his extensive market knowledge, Schneider brings a deep understanding of the challenges faced by TMCs, travel managers, and finance professionals.

Strategic Expansion of TMC Partnerships

Edi – Expense Intelligence deliberately positions itself not as a competitor to TMCs, but as a digital extension of their value proposition. The platform integrates booking, expense, and compliance data into a unified end-to-end process bridging travel management and expense management.

In his new role, Andreas Schneider will:

• expand strategic TMC alliances

Clear positioning within the business travel ecosystem

By bringing Andreas Schneider on board, Edi – Expense Intelligence is underscoring its commitment to combining technology with strategic partnerships. For TMCs and corporate clients, this means:
