LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Korn Ferry (NYSE: KFY) today announced that it has acquired Infinity Consulting Solutions (ICS).

Headquartered in New York, with nine offices throughout the United States, ICS offers substantial interim professional solutions expertise which will further enhance Korn Ferry’s industry-leading portfolio.

ICS is a widely regarded provider of senior-level IT interim professional solutions with additional expertise in the areas of compliance and legal, accounting and finance, and human resources.

The firm brings to Korn Ferry a vast network of senior IT professionals, a rigorous data-driven recruitment process, and deep relationships with a diverse mix of clients across multiple industries. ICS has also been recognized with the Best of Staffing Diamond award for 10 consecutive years.

Korn Ferry’s world-class brand, vast intellectual property and five decades of organizational consulting expertise are a firm foundation for growing scale in today’s highly segmented executive and professional interim solutions market.
