Marketing, media and communications recruitment specialist Xchangeteam, which operates from offices in Bristol and London, has been acquired by the Pertemps Network.
Chief executive Emma Brierley, who founded Xchangeteam in 1999, said: “We are delighted to have become part of the successful Pertemps Network Group while still retaining our operational independence and brand.
“We will continue to offer our clients and candidates our well recognised quality service but use Pertemps Network’s resources to enable us to adapt to a changing market and offer some new services for our clients, freelancers and job seekers alike."
She added that the contribution of Bristol advisers Target Corporate Finance “was key in helping Xchangeteam secure this deal”.
Target Corporate Finance – an arm of Target Chartered Accountants – is an award-winning boutique advisory firm with a strong track record of advising vendors and purchasers on a wide range of corporate transactions, including mergers, acquisitions, disposals and management buy-outs.
Managing director Mark Harman said: “This deal represents an exciting opportunity for Xchangeteam to benefit from being part of a larger business.”
