Recruitment
We are seasoned recruiters who recruit top talent for businesses in Cape Town, South Africa and globally. Small, medium and large companies use us to attract the best staff on their behalf.
As EOR we employ South African staff on behalf of European, American and Australian companies that do not have a physical presence in South Africa. Our proven Employer of Record service allows you to hire top South Africans IN South Africa and work for you without the hassle of registering a local company or maintaining a physical presence.
South African Employer of Record
Job Seekers
Our recruitment service is focused exclusively on client companies – finding the top 5% candidates on their behalf. We don’t find jobs for people. However, recruiters do sit upright when seeing a good CV for the position they are working on – please keep your profile up to date so we can find you, and keep applying for our advertised positions.
Business Mantra
“We Get People” is our business mantra. We have been “getting” people for more than 25 years. We help businesses to find and employ the top 5% of candidates in their fields of expertise. We help you to build and maintain a top South African workforce. Businesses often rely on word of mouth or their own efforts to find candidates, but this takes time, expertise and costs money – making recruitment a challenge. We find the top talent in your industry on your behalf. We recruit top talent all day every day, making our recruiters experts in their fields.
West Coast Personnel streamlines the recruitment process by presenting the best-vetted candidates, on time. Our Recruitment service is free and your company pay for our expertise after the successful candidate has commenced employment. Our EOR service issues employment contracts on your behalf, handles payroll, salaries and statutory responsibilities and charges a monthly service fee per worker. West Coast Personnel offers a range of add on services: background checks – criminal, credit, education and reference checks – so you know you’re recruiting reliable staff. Our international standard skills testing software ensures that candidates can do what they say.
