Key Findings & Highlights:

Cielo is a strategic talent acquisition partner for clients wishing to transform their talent acquisition (TA) function. The 2013 merger between U.S.-based Pinstripe and U.K.-based Ochre House resulted in the formation of Cielo.

Backed by its 2018 private equity funding from Permira Group, Cielo acquired China-based AsiaNet in March 2020, expanding its presence in China with service centers in Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Wuhan. In a second acquisition, the company acquired talent acquisition and technology consulting firm Talent Function in December 2020. In May 2022, the company acquired the boutique human capital consulting firm Peridus Group. Since 2020, Peridus has expanded consulting services for Cielo associated with Workday, HR strategy, technical integration and implementation, and client data migration. The acquisition strengthens the company’s technology advisory and consulting services portfolio and consolidates its consulting services, including DEI and Employer Branding, into a single strategic consulting practice.

The company aims to lead its clients with market-leading solutions, delivering value and impact. Cielo maintains a broad product and service portfolio comprising:

  • Talent acquisition - the people, process, and technology making the business of talent effective and candidate-first, including RPO, TA Optimizers, and contingent workforce services
  • Consulting - strategies and expertise to enhance employer branding, technology, and DEI strategies into a competitive advantage
  • Search - tech-forward and transparent talent searching for business leaders, including executive search, executive search outsourcing, physician search, project search, and research and insight
  • Digital Accelerators - intelligent tools enabling recruiters to focus on value-added tasks and support talent mobility through sourcing and engagement, market and talent predictive insights, and GenAI-enabled tools.

Cielo balances direct client interaction and enabling technology via its evolving Cielo TalentCloud platform and ecosystem.
