As part of a recently completed transaction, Consult Energy will now sit under the VIQU group. I am delighted to share this exciting development that we have been pursuing in recent months, and I am confident that this will position Consult Energy for further future success.

VIQU Ltd. – an award-winning Birmingham-based IT recruitment and consultancy business, with an additional office in Southampton, have been operating for the past 10 years, and service businesses across the UK’s IT sector.

VIQU’s investment marks an exciting point in Consult Energy’s story. Our talented team have moved offices to join the VIQU team in Edgbaston, Birmingham, and I am thrilled to be remaining with the business, as we navigate this new chapter, in the role of Managing Director. In the short time I have been working directly with VIQU’s Managing Director, Matt Collingwood, who has successfully led VIQU since its inception in 2014, we have already created dynamic plans that I know will have a lasting impact.

I have no doubt that this unique investment opportunity will bring great opportunities to both businesses. The ability to share knowledge, resources and efficiencies will create a productive synergy that will drive both businesses forward. I know this collaboration will enable us to offer even more to our clients, so I am highly enthused about what the future of Consult Energy looks like under VIQU’s guidance. 

I’d like to thank the VIQU board and senior leadership team, and a number of external suppliers, including Sid Barnes of Mastermind Consulting and Pippa Miller-Hawkes of BSN Chartered Accounts, for ensuring this investment went through smoothly and without disturbance to Consult Energy’s operations.

"I've known of Consult Energy since I launched VIQU in 2014 and have always held the brand and their team in high regard. I am really excited about the opportunity to bring two of the strongest professional recruitment brands together, to share knowledge and resources, which will positively impact their respective sectors and ultimately grow both businesses.” 

Matt Collingwood, Managing Director of VIQU Limited
