Hudson RPO Enters Japanese Market with Acquisition of Alpha Consulting Group

Hudson RPO has acquired Alpha Consulting Group (ACG) Japan, expanding its geographic footprint and client base. The acquisition provides Hudson RPO with local and on-site support in Japan and fills the last remaining geographic area to make it a truly global service provider. The acquisition aligns with Hudson RPO's strategy of growing its business organically and through accretive bolt-on acquisitions.

Hudson RPO, a leading global total talent solutions company, has announced the acquisition of Alpha Consulting Group (ACG) Japan. This strategic move marks Hudson RPO's entrance into the Japanese market, the second largest in the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region and the third largest globally. The acquisition aligns with Hudson RPO's three-pronged growth strategy: expanding its client base, geographic footprint, and service capabilities.

Alpha Consulting Group specializes in recruitment services for the IT Services, Technology, and Business Services sectors, serving clients ranging from small- and medium-sized businesses to multinational corporations. The acquisition enables Hudson RPO to provide local support in the Japanese recruiting market and strengthens its position as a global service provider, particularly in the APAC region where it already maintains a strong presence.

Jake Zabkowicz, Global CEO of Hudson RPO, noted, "Today’s announcement fits well with our three-pronged strategy of growing our business organically and through accretive bolt-on acquisitions via the expansion of: a) our client base, b) our geographic footprint, and c) our capabilities and cross-selling of services across regions and clients. At the same time, it gives Hudson RPO immediate access to ACG’s impressive list of current clients in Japan. We welcome ACG’s employees and clients into our team and company and look forward to collaborating with them on many solutions for new and existing clients of both our companies."

Jeff Eberwein, Chief Executive Officer of Hudson Global, noted, "The acquisition of ACG provides Hudson RPO the capability to provide local and on-site support within the large Japanese recruiting market, a home of many multinational companies, and represents an important milestone for Hudson RPO because we are now able to support our existing clients’ needs in Japan. With an already strong presence in the APAC region, our entrance into Japan fills the last remaining geographic area required to make Hudson RPO a truly global service provider to our clients."

This acquisition is a significant step for Hudson RPO, enhancing its leadership position in the APAC region and solidifying its global presence.
