Benchmark International Successfully Facilitated the Transaction Between OneSource Professional Search, LLC and Xenspire Group Inc.

September 16, 2024

Benchmark is pleased to announce the transaction between OneSource Professional Search, LLC & Xenspire Group Inc. The transaction represents a strategic and geographic expansion for Xenspire Group Inc. through acquisition.

Based in Mandeville, LA, OneSource Professional Search, LLC is a technical and financial search and staffing company providing direct hire, contract, and temp-to-hire placement of skilled candidates from near entry-level to C-Suite for roles in engineering, geoscience, accounting, and finance. With a primary focus on the oil and gas industry, they also serve the accounting, manufacturing, and civil infrastructure industries.

"In early 2023, we engaged Benchmark International to explore strategic alternatives for our boutique professional search firm. Benchmark's dynamic team collaborated to introduce us to multiple potential buyers interested in our firm, which led to three offers after a year of interviews and meetings. Ultimately, we selected the fair and best-fit offer to provide a platform/company to take care of, invest in employees, and scale the firm we had built over 21 years in practice. Benchmark International's team was always professional and accessible during the journey, and we learned a lot along the way, resulting in a successful closing for our firm in September of 2024.  Even though the Benchmark International team dedicated to our case was earlier in their careers than we were, they were always professional, knowledgeable, and accessible. They did an amazing job facilitating our sales process, including challenging discussions and sensitive negotiations. Specifically, the expertise and relationship developed with Nick Woodyard as we entered into serious discussions with potential buyers through the sale's closing was quite helpful, and we would highly recommend Nick along with Benchmark's marketing team led by Joe Margle. Without our engagement with Benchmark International and their highly professional team, we would not have encountered any of the finalists for our company sale. We highly recommend Benchmark International to any business owner interested in considering strategic alternatives for their firm." - Dave Mount, President & Partner, and Henry Shurlds, Vice President & Partner at OneSource Professional Search, LLC.
