AMS acquires Canadian RPO provider HirePower

November 03, 2022

AMS (formerly Alexander Mann Solutions) — a global provider of RPO, talent acquisition and TA technology advisory services — acquired 100% of the share capital in HirePower, a Canadian provider of recruitment process outsourcing.

Founded in 1992, Toronto-based HirePower provides talent acquisition solutions for many Fortune 500 companies and local mid- and large-scale organizations. The deal brings AMS on-the-ground capability and a platform to create a digital and technology sourcing and hiring center of excellence in Canada, supporting North American and global clients.

The transaction, announced on Wednesday, also broadens AMS’ client base.

London-based AMS told SIA that it will be working closely with the HirePower team on all aspects of the integration over the coming months. Financial details were not disclosed.

“The acquisition of HirePower expands our capabilities in the rapidly growing North American market, particularly in relation to technology and digital hiring,” said David Leigh, CEO of AMS “We have grown significantly in North America over the last few years and, prior to this acquisition had approximately 2,000 employees in the region. The addition of HirePower’s excellent team, which has built a market-leading business with an excellent reputation for service and client satisfaction, will help us continue our strong momentum.”

The deal follows AMS’ acquisitions of FlexAbility (India), The Up Group (Europe) and CnL Advisors (US).

Omers Private Equity, the investment arm of the pension plan for municipal employees of Ontario, Canada, acquired AMS in 2018.
