A specialist engineering group has been acquired by a UK engineering firm.
NG Bailey, headquartered in Leeds, has acquired Engineering Solutions Group (ESG), based in Sutton-in-Ashfield.
The move supports NG Bailey’s growth strategy and expands its reach in the water infrastructure sector.
Jonathan Stockton, chief executive of NG Bailey, said: “Bringing ESG into the NG Bailey family is a decision which makes both strategic and commercial sense as we continue to deliver our Journey to 2030 business plan.
“The acquisition provides a natural extension to our existing range of services and strengthens both our market positions, whilst opening up new growth opportunities for us in key areas including water infrastructure.”
NG Bailey plans to retain ESG’s existing management and employees and will continue operating under its current brand as part of the company’s Built Environment division.
The addition of ESG’s team will bring NG Bailey’s total workforce to more than 3,600 employees.
