G+T has advised Capricorn Society Limited (Capricorn), Australasia’s largest automotive cooperative, on its strategic acquisition of Recruitment Innovations trading as Australian Skilled Migration (ASM), by way of a share purchase agreement.
This key acquisition will allow Capricorn to leverage ASM’s recruitment and migrations business that connects Australian businesses with skilled overseas workers and manages the employer-sponsored visa process.
With automotive skills shortages remaining a key concern for Capricorn’s members, ASM will support Capricorn in sourcing highly skilled international labour, helping to ensure the continued success of Capricorn’s network of members.
The G+T team was let by partner Simon Rear, with support from lawyers Meng-Yeow Lim and Cameron Faas.
Commenting on the deal, Simon Rear said:
Capricorn has made a strategic investment to expand its capability to tackle industry challenges, which will assist their members’ businesses for years to come. We’re pleased to have worked with Capricorn on this transaction and to support their continued leadership in the sector.
