Accenture announced it acquired Cirrus, a UK-based leadership and talent consultancy. Cirrus has 70 experts located in the UK and Australia serving global clients.

“Our clients look to us for guidance and innovation alongside them in their transformation journeys, especially during times of change,” said Christie Smith, global lead for talent and organization/human potential at Accenture. “By acquiring Cirrus, we can deliver leadership and talent development programs to serve them at a greater pace and scale.”

Terms of the transaction were not announced.

Cirrus was founded in 2010 by Simon Hayward, who serves as its CEO.

“Joining Accenture creates an opportunity to bring our capabilities to more clients seeking expertise in leadership guidance,” Hayward said.

Cirrus will join Accenture’s Talent & Organization/Human Potential team.
