Meyer Mundell Limited has acquired recruitment specialists Portman Partners and announced plans for the expansion of services for the digital infrastructure industry.
Portman Partners provides recruitment services for industry investors and their portfolio companies, hyperscale, cloud, colocation, edge and HPC data centre operators.
The principal of Meyer Mundell, Mike Meyer, joined Portman Partners as Managing Director in 2022, working alongside company founder, Peter Hannaford. Hannaford will now focus on global business development and account management, with Meyer to lead the business.
“The investment will act as a catalyst to launch new services that will support businesses and the investment community that want to leverage the huge growth opportunity presented by the advent of artificial intelligence,” said Meyer.
“We will not only be launching new services and expanding our partnerships in areas such as the US and APAC, but also in emerging markets like Africa and Latin America which are fast becoming hotspots.”
Hannaford added, “Billions of dollars are being invested each week to build the world’s digital infrastructure. This new investment means we can accelerate our plans to become the pre-eminent executive search consultancy in our space, who can respond to the needs of our existing clients and the new players who need to build the teams that will deliver growth.”
