Shorterm Group, one of the UK’s leading engineering recruitment and training businesses, today announced it has completed its acquisition of Universal Skills Group (USG), a specialist training provider within the energy sector.

Steve Gallucci, CEO at Shorterm Group said:

“USG have built a great business with a fantastic reputation. This acquisition complements Shorterm’s strong recruitment presence in the energy sector and further extends our capability in the growing areas of training within this industry.”

As electronic vehicles and SMART energy initiatives continue to drive demand and change consumer habits, the need to upskill workforces and bring in new recruits is essential.  The USG team are experienced in delivering training to some of the largest energy companies in the UK helping them to meet the needs of the future.  

Danny Coleman, Managing Director at USG, said:

“We are delighted to be starting the next phase of our growth strategy with Shorterm Group. It’s a great fit between the two companies.“
