The strategic acquisition was completed for an undisclosed fee and will see CLS maintain its own brand name, maintaining its identity and client relationships with ORB Recruitment’s financial backing and resources. 

CLS was established in 1999 and based in Normanton, with 25 years of expertise in the construction and civils sector, 

The firm also has a database of more than 50,000 active contractors with relationships with Tier 1 contractors throughout the UK.

ORB plans to invest in CLS’s growth, with intentions to increase the headcount at the Normanton office by two before the end of the year, bringing the total staff to seven.

ORB Recruitment seeks to strengthen its position in the construction recruitment market through the acquisition and expand its service offerings to clients across the UK.

Stewart Olsen, CEO of ORB Recruitment, said: “The acquisition of CLS by ORB is an exciting opportunity to expand our footprint within the construction industry. 

“CLS’s excellent reputation and deep industry knowledge perfectly complement ORB’s existing strengths. 

“By combining our resources and expertise, we’re poised to deliver even greater value to our clients and candidates in the construction sector and beyond.”

“Clients of both companies can expect business as usual, with the added advantage of enhanced services and capabilities. 

“The move is set to improve output, customer service, and overall efficiencies for CLS’s operations.”
