Roy Shelton, chief executive of Connectus, will continue the role at the helm of the wider group.

He said the merger sets the group on a path to becoming one of the leading IT managed service providers in the º£½ÇÊÓÆµ. Clients already include AIB, UCB, Unilever, Peel Group, Sale Sharks and the National Police Air Service.

“This is the start of an exciting new chapter for Connectus Business Solutions and KTSL and will present an opportunity for further growth and job creation,” he said.

“By bringing these two great organisations together and creating Connectus Group, we have significantly increased our technical capability, boosted our delivery resources and further deepened our pool of commercial experience. This is the third transaction in as many years for Connectus, having been forced to pause our ambitious merger and acquisition strategy due to the global pandemic.
