03Who the typical client is
A funded company that needs senior talent faster than a local agency can move, or an international team opening its first African hire without a local entity. The common thread is speed plus compliance rather than volume staffing.
- Fintech and financial services teams building engineering and risk functions
- Technology scale-ups adding product, data and platform roles
- Global companies making a first hire in a new African market
- Support-heavy businesses standing up outsourced customer operations
04Evidence, not logos
Case studies name the role, the market, the time to shortlist and what happened to retention. The client directory and testimonials pages carry the wider roster for anyone doing diligence before a first conversation.
Frequently asked
