The Adecco Group, the largest staffing group in the world, acquired today Mullin International, an outplacement services supplier based in New York City. Even though the financial details of the Acquisition were not disclosed, it is known that Mullin will be integrated into the Northeast region of Adecco’s Lee Hecht Harrison outplacement division.

Mullin was founded in 1980 and has customers around the world.

John Morgan, executive of Lee Hecht Harrison US, said that “Combining Mullin’s business with Lee Hecht Harrison’s further accelerates the reach and impact of Lee Hecht Harrison’s bold new approach focused on ‘active placement’ that leads individuals in transition to better jobs, faster.”

Keith Mullin, CEO added Mullin International, claimed that both companies share very similar values and that  “in addition to being able to provide more dedicated resources, leading edge digital tools and access to hidden jobs for our candidates, our clients will see further reductions in placement times, improved brand sentiment, as well as an integrated set of transition and talent development solutions to accelerate their workforce transformation.”
