MANAGEMENT BRIEFS

Sources say that Jonathan Golub will be leaving ITS Associates Inc. for Chancellor Capital Management Inc. to handle that firm's marketing of its 401K plan. Golub is currently a New York-based vice president and director of business development for the Wellesley, Mass.-headquartered ITS. He serves as head of marketing for ITS's PMIS multi-currency portfolio accounting software. (IMT, Feb. 19, 1993). He has been with ITS just over a year; prior to that, he was with Financial Models Co.

Pamela Pecs-Cytron has joined Data Exchange Inc.'s sales department as a representative having responsibility for the vendor's western region and its so-called "named accounts" in New York City. Prior to Data Exchange, Pecs-Cytron worked for Princeton Financial Systems Inc. as head of sales for the midwestern and western territories.

Ed McLaughlin has moved to Cap Gemini America, after having left Princeton Financial Systems, where he was a sales manager. At Cap Gemini, McLaughlin is a senior manager in the consulting firm's newly minted market development unit.

Rather, his responsibilities will be carved up among a sales department headed by Jim Mayhall.

New York-based Information Resources Inc.'s IRI Software unit is inundating that city's dailies with help-wanted ads--seeking database, Visual Basic and applications developers, as well as a host of other systems programmers and software engineers. IRI claims over $100 million in revenues and a 25 percent "population increase" in 1993. While Information Resources declines to comment on the ad, the population hike apparently refers to the number of people the vendor's lately hired.

The Boston Company--a subsidiary of Mellon Bank--is also hiring. The firm seeks a project manager, systems analysts and a technical assistant, among others.

Apparently a devotee of the new math, Fidelity Investments ran an ad with the following headline: "Leadership + Growth = Opportunity." The firm wants to fill positions in client/server systems, client applications, and custody, portfolio accounting and mid-range systems.
