New Jersey-based eTeam has acquired Signify Technology, a London-headquartered specialist technology recruitment firm. Financial terms were not disclosed.

Founded in 2016 by Ryan Adams, Signify has grown to include a US presence in Texas. The business will continue under its existing brand and leadership team, with access to eTeam’s wider workforce and staffing services.

Signify’s shareholders were advised by Mishcon de Reya, RSM and Deloitte. It’s another example of an overseas buyer acquiring a founder-led UK business this year.
