“Under the leadership of Karen Wilson and her team, MAKE has built an impressive operation in delivering exceptional workforce solutions,” Ahmed added. “Their commitment and passion have built a foundation that we believe will only be made stronger as part of the DISYS portfolio We look forward to what we will be able to build together as we work to deliver industry-leading experiences for our clients and our people.”
