The Clearwater team has advised the founders Sabine and Karin Vogt on the sale of Vokus Personal AG, a leading Swiss staffing agency for the healthcare sector.

The founders and co-CEOs of Vokus Personal are transferring the majority of their shares to the Swedish Storskogen Group as part of their succession plan. The two sisters will remain on board as shareholders and, in cooperation with Storskogen, will hand over the operational management of the company to a new managing director recruited during the acquisition process.

The company will be integrated into Storskogen's HR & Competencies segment of the Services division, but will remain operationally independent.

Vokus Personal is a leading recruitment agency for healthcare professionals in Switzerland. Headquartered in Zurich, the company is valued in the industry as a reliable partner and attractive employer by clients, healthcare staff and employees alike. Since its foundation in 2012, Vokus Personal has successfully established itself as a focused provider with continuous growth in the healthcare sector.

Storskogen acquires and manages well-managed and profitable medium-sized companies in the business areas of industry, trade and services in the Nordic countries, the DACH region and the United Kingdom without the intention of reselling them. Storskogen has been listed on the Stockholm Stock Exchange since October 2021.
