Glasgow based Law At
Work, the employment law, HR and health & safety
specialist, has announced the growth of its business through three
acquisitions by parent company Marlowe plc.
In deals worth a combined £5.15m, Dundee-based HR software
provider Youmanage; employment law firm and employees relations
technology business ESPHR; and third sector specialist HR Services
Partnership have been acquired.
The firms will be led by Law At Work (LAW) and Ellis
Whittam, which deliver Marlowe's extensive employment law and HR
services across the UK. The transaction represents a major step for
the group, supporting the overall growth and expansion of its
services proposition.
Magnus Swanson, chairman of Law At Work (pictured) said:
"Since becoming part of Marlowe, our ambition has been to acquire
further businesses that complement our own, in order to strengthen
the services we provide to our clients. These acquisitions
reinforce our current offering with more high-quality legal
expertise, market-leading software and greater capability in our HR
consultancy offering.
"I'm very excited about our future, the opportunities that
this will bring for our brilliant team, and the enhanced level of
support this will offer our SME and mid-market clients."
