Advanced RPO, a leading recruitment process outsourcing (RPO) provider, announced today that it has acquired Aspirant RPO, a Pittsburgh-based RPO provider. This strategic acquisition strengthens Advanced RPO’s market position with an expanded chemical and manufacturing industry footprint and additional client offerings, including employer branding and advisory services.
“Aspirant RPO is an ideal fit for us in terms of expertise and service offerings, however the greatest appeal was the cultural alignment. We share the same values and that provides us a strong foundation to fully integrate,” says Pam Verhoff, CEO and president of Advanced RPO. “We are absolutely thrilled to join forces.”
This acquisition will enable Advanced RPO to better support its clients as they compete for talent in today’s complex hiring environment. Given the current talent shortages and skill gaps, having support in building the right workforce is critical.
“We see this acquisition as a tremendous opportunity for our team and our clients,” says Ken Linamen, president of Aspirant RPO. “I’m proud of the growth we’ve achieved thus far and am excited to continue our journey with Advanced RPO.”
