SYNERGIE acquires Agilus to expand North American HR services
SYNERGIE Group has completed the acquisition of a majority stake in Agilus Work Solutions, a leading Canadian staffing firm. The deal marks a major step in SYNERGIE's plans to grow its presence in North America. Both companies now look ahead to combining their expertise in HR services.
Founded in 1976, Agilus operates 14 branches across Canada and ranks as the country's eighth-largest staffing provider. The company specialises in temporary and permanent placements for professional, technical, and IT roles, along with payroll services for natural resource industries. In 2025, it reported revenues of around CAD 300 million (approximately €190 million).
SYNERGIE's acquisition will expand its national reach in Canada while adding complementary skills in engineering, IT, and operational staffing. The group aims to build a full range of HR solutions across North America. BMO Capital Markets served as the exclusive financial advisor for the transaction. Craig Brown, CEO of Agilus and SYNERGIE Canada, called the deal an exciting new chapter for the business. Victorien Vaney, CEO of SYNERGIE Group, described it as a transformative milestone in the company's expansion strategy. SYNERGIE will release its 2025 financial results on Wednesday, 1 April 2026, after the market closes.
The acquisition strengthens SYNERGIE's position in Canada and broadens its service offerings. Agilus will continue operating under its current brand while integrating with SYNERGIE's global network. The combined capabilities are expected to create new opportunities in staffing and HR solutions.
