Addison Professional Search buys Houston firm

April 23, 2008

Addison Professional Search acquired HireSynergy, a Houston-based executive search firm with a focus on the accounting, finance, and information technology industries. Terms of the deal were not announced.

The acquisition of the 38-person firm expands Addison's presence in the southeast. HireSynergy's founding partner, Birgit Kamps, will remain with the company.

"We are thrilled to welcome Birgit and the HireSynergy team, who have an outstanding reputation and deep industry expertise that is a tremendous complement to our existing Houston practice," said Joel Katz, CEO and founder of Addison.

Addison, a Chicago-based staffing firm, provides finance and accounting, information technology, and office/clerical personnel. It ranked No. 12 on Staffing Industry Analysts' 2007 list of the fastest-growing privately held staffing companies.
