Two of the logistics industry's major executive recruitment specialists have merged. BiS and George Henderson have joined forces to become BiS Henderson in a merger that has been planned for the past seven months.
The company says the aim of the merger is to create a company that is big enough to "invest and grow through the economic downturn rather than batten down the hatches".
BiS Henderson CEO Andy Kaye says: "The combined strength of BiS and George Henderson will now offer clients and candidates alike an unparalleled level of experience, service and technical expertise in the supply chain and logistics sector.
Mark Botham, the former managing director of George Henderson and now newly appointed chief operating officer added: "The merger has been planned over the past seven months and stems from both companies' desires to create a customer-centric recruitment service for clients and candidates."
