IDEX Consulting and WPR form strategic merger to deliver change and

IDEX Consulting, a global talent and business growth consultancy, and WPR, a market-leading contract and interim talent provider, are pleased to announce a strategic merger.

The merger will provide clients across technology change and finance change, two of the most in-demand areas in today’s market, with an enhanced suite of talent management and M&A solutions for their change and transformation needs.

This partnership is a direct response to the evolving challenges faced by clients in the financial services and insurance sectors, such as major regulatory changes, technology innovations and broader business modernisation requirements.

“We’re incredibly excited about our new partnership with WPR, which makes us well positioned to support clients through their most complex change and transformation initiatives. By bringing WPR's expertise into the fold, IDEX can now offer a specialised contract and permanent talent solution across technology change and finance change,” says Matt Green, CEO of IDEX Consulting.

Noting the benefits for IDEX’s M&A clients, Matt adds, “After helping organisations execute strategic acquisitions, we can now also ensure they have the bench strength to deliver on post-deal synergies– a critical success factor in any M&A journey.”

WPR’s reputation, built over more than a decade on strong values and a commitment to quality over quantity, has resulted in significant repeat business from clients such as Hiscox, Aspen and Beazley. The investment by IDEX provides them with a platform for further growth.

“This is an exciting time for WPR. Partnering with IDEX provides us with the international reach our clients need to expand their business, especially with so many of our clients having a presence stateside,” says James Pepe, WPR Co-founder and Executive Director.

Niall Wynne, WPR Co-founder and Executive Director adds:

"Working alongside IDEX will enable us to provide our consultants with additional tools and resources, helping them to achieve more for our client base. We’ve always been committed to doing business the right way, building long lasting relationships that add tangible value and contribute to the success of our clients, and it was important to us that we found a partner who prioritised the same values.”

This collaboration marks a significant milestone in both IDEX and WPR’s growth journey, enabling them to collectively deliver additional solutions for clients whilst paving the way for future partnerships with other high-performing firms who share the same values and ambition.
