Naperville, Ill.-based IPA 100 firm Sikich LLC (FY24 net revenue of $438.9 million) has acquired Jefferson Wells U.S. from ManpowerGroup.
Milwaukee-based Jefferson Wells brings more than 300 U.S. employees and provides services in risk and compliance, finance and accounting and tax through project consulting, integrated resourcing and executive search. The acquisition expands Sikich’s capabilities across regulated industries and complements its existing strengths in healthcare, life sciences and manufacturing and distribution.
“This acquisition enhances existing capabilities across our business, including deep expertise in risk and compliance, finance and accounting and tax, making Jefferson Wells an ideal fit as we continue to scale,” said Christopher Geier. “Both teams share a conviction of a people first culture and the belief that clients deserve practical, actionable solutions delivered at the highest level of quality.”
“We are delighted to see Jefferson Wells U.S. join Sikich, where there is strong alignment in capabilities, culture and growth ambition”, added Ger Doyle. “This creates exciting opportunities for the business and its people. My sincere thanks to the teams on both sides for their hard work and professionalism in bringing this together. As we move forward, we are energized to focus on our core business and continue delivering value for our clients and candidates across North America.”
The transaction closed on April 30.
