Allegis rebrands Aston Carter’s IT staffing operations in Europe

The European IT staffing operations of Aston Carter will now operate under the TEKsystems brand, Allegis Group announced this month. Aston Carter and TEKsystems previously provided IT staffing services independently throughout Europe.

Allegis acquired London-based Aston Carter in February 2011. Aston Carter’s IT staffing operations include contract, contract-to-permanent, permanent and IT-related statement-of-work business.

However, Aston Carter’s business service staffing such as risk and compliance will remain under the Aston Carter brand.

The rebrands of both TEKsystems’ and Aston Carter’s European operations allow each to continue growing and serve as a platform for building global brands.

Sean Zimdahl, President of Allegis Group International, commented: “The Aston Carter brand will continue to provide clients with the expertise, speed and quality, scalability, risk mitigation, and trust they have grown to expect from our business services staffing capabilities.”

“We believe the TEKsystems brand offers us a more global platform, given its size and scope of services beyond staffing and recruiting. While the TEKsystems brand may not be as well known in the U.K. or European markets today, we are confident we can improve the market’s awareness of the brand and our range of services over time,” he added.
