Harvey Nash Group, a London-based global staffing firm, acquired US-based IT staffing firm Latitude 36 in a deal that was announced today.
Latitude 36 is based in Franklin, Tennessee, with a West Coast office in Fremont, California, and an Indian headquarters in Hyderabad.
“The group has bold, ambitious plans for growth internationally, and through taking this significant step we will gain critical mass in the important North American market,” Harvey Nash CEO Bev White said. “Our US clients will benefit from having access to a much wider range of services, as well as an extended team of technology recruitment experts who can support their needs.”
Latitude 36’s management will take leadership roles at Harvey Nash.
Blackwood Capital Group, led by Managing Partner Ronny Grosman, acted as M&A advisor to Harvey Nash.
Latitude 36 began 20 years ago. President and COO Jason Pyle said joining Harvey Nash is the next step in the company’s success.
“Combining the businesses provides a platform to become one of the largest and fastest-growing staffing firms in the United States, creating more opportunities for our employees, clients and candidates,” Pyle said.
