Tue, 16 Mar 2010

International recruiter Initio International has acquired legal recruiter Longbridge International.

Recently appointed director, Patrick Goodwin, says: “As part of Initio, Longbridge has a great opportunity to build an established brand and maximise its potential through diversification into other areas of professional staffing, throughout the UK.”

Brendan Flood, chief executive of Initio International, which itself was a recent management buy-out from Japanese-owned Faro Recruitment Group, adds: “Initio has been looking to expand into the UK for some time now and I’m excited we’ve been fortunate enough to acquire a brand as strong as Longbridge, with all itsheritage in the market.”
