Rowlands Recruitment Joins Rialto Investment Partners

We are pleased to announce that Rowlands Recruitment has been acquired by Rialto Investment Partners, marking an exciting new chapter for our business. 

Rowlands has been at the heart of Jersey’s recruitment sector for many years, dedicated to delivering exceptional services to both clients and candidates. Our commitment to excellence remains steadfast, and this transition enables us to continue providing outstanding recruitment solutions while benefiting from the strategic expertise, investment and support of Rialto. 

This partnership represents a significant opportunity for Rowlands as we become part of Rialto’s expanding portfolio of local businesses, which includes Maillard & Co, Sarre & Co, Signtech, and AllSorted. Rialto’s investment strategy focuses on high-performing, owner-managed businesses that positively impact the local economy, making them the perfect partner for Rowlands’ continued success. 

Under Rialto’s leadership, we will continue to strengthen our recruitment services, ensuring enhanced efficiencies and growth. This acquisition also marks Rialto’s first investment within the People & HR sector, which will be a key focus area for growth throughout 2025 and beyond. 

As part of this transition, Jeralie Pallot, former owner of Rowlands Recruitment, will rejoin the business as a Non-Executive Director, providing strategic guidance and supporting high-level recruitment. Her involvement ensures continuity and allows Rowlands to leverage her vast industry experience to drive further success. 

While our dedicated team remains unchanged, we acknowledge the leadership of Georgina Moehle, who will be stepping down as Managing Director. We thank Georgina for her invaluable contributions to Rowlands and wish her all the best for the future. 

Oliver Mourant, Partner at Rialto Investment Partners, commented: "We are delighted to welcome Rowlands Recruitment into the Rialto portfolio. Their outstanding reputation and strong community presence align perfectly with our investment philosophy. We are committed to supporting their continued growth and success." 

Rowlands Recruitment looks forward to this new phase of growth and innovation with Rialto. Our dedication to providing high-quality recruitment services remains unchanged, and we are excited about the opportunities ahead.
