Neal England, managing director and HRM practice leader at Capital Alliance, introduced the two firms.
“They share the same views about providing an extremely high level of customer service and both have excellent reputations,” England said. “The transaction fills a market need for the buyer who wanted to enter Chicago and establish a base for further organic expansion in the Upper Midwest,” he said.
“The shared mindset between the buyer and seller is remarkable; you don’t often see two companies that are so in-step,” England said. “Our client was highly selective in choosing the right partner, and PeopleShare turned out to be the perfect match.”
