The Adecco Group today announced it acquired Mullin International, an outplacement provider based in New York City. Terms of the deal have not been made public; however, Mullin will be integrated into the Northeast region of Adecco’s Lee Hecht Harrison outplacement division.

“An effective career transition solution remains a critical part of managing the risk associated with any workforce transformation,” said John Morgan, Lee Hecht Harrison’s executive VP, US. “Combining Mullin’s business with Lee Hecht Harrison’s further accelerates the reach and impact of Lee Hecht Harrison’s bold new approach focused on ‘active placement’ that leads individuals in transition to better jobs, faster."

Mullin was founded in 1980 and has customers around the world.

“Lee Hecht Harrison and Mullin have very similar values so joining Lee Hecht Harrison is a natural evolution for Mullin,” said Keith Mullin, CEO of Mullin International. “In addition to being able to provide more dedicated resources, leading edge digital tools and access to hidden jobs for our candidates, our clients will see further reductions in placement times, improved brand sentiment, as well as an integrated set of transition and talent development solutions to accelerate their workforce transformation.”
