A court has sanctioned Matchtech Group’s acquisition of staffing firm Networkers International, a UK-based provider of IT, telecommunications and other staffing services.

Brian Wilkinson, Chief Executive Office of Matchtech, commented:

“There are significant market opportunities for us as a specialist recruiter, of considerable scale and operating internationally,” said Matchtech CEO Brian Wilkinson. “These are driven by the increasing convergence of engineering, technology, and telecoms skill sets, as well as the global demand for talent.

“Following the completion of the acquisition of Networkers, we are a significantly enhanced Group. We can now accelerate the delivery of our strategy, bringing together two complementary businesses that are leading market players in their own right. Furthermore, there is a clear appreciation, from management, staff and customers alike, of the benefits that come from combining candidate bases, expertise, and geographical footprints.”
