The Adecco Group’s LHH brand, long home to its outplacement and HR consulting business offerings, will be expanded to also include Adecco’s professional recruitment brands starting this year. Adecco’s legal staffing brand, Special Counsel, took on the LHH brand effective today.

Adecco had announced in August that it was simplifying its brand portfolio with LHH being positioned as its brand for talent solutions.

The other US professional staffing brands that will transition to LHH over the course of the next year are Accounting Principals, Ajilon, Paladin and Paker+Lynch. The new LHH division will be officially known as LHH Recruitment Solutions.

“Streamlining our brands is the next step in our continued commitment to helping our clients and top talent navigate the ever-shifting landscape,” said Laurie Chamberlin, who currently leads Adecco’s US professional recruitment and will assume the role of head of LHH Recruitment Solutions, North America, effective Jan. 1.
