OUR BROCHURE
What you'll find inside
A clear view of how we work with you, whether you’re leading the business, running talent acquisition or hiring for your own team.
- Four ways we work with you: market advisory, executive search, contractor and payroll services, and permanent hiring, and when each one fits.
- How an executive search runs: our three phases, from confidential executive mapping to assessment and appointment.
- Two contracting routes: specialists we source for you, or payroll for contractors you’ve already found.
- The people you’ll work with: our leadership team and the senior consultants who stay with you from brief to start date.
One partner, every stage of growth.

- Level 2 B-BBEE Contributor
Deep expertise, deliberate focus.
Francois Wirth, CIO: Insurance, South Africa.
Standard Bank: Insurance & Asset Management
Modernising insurance technology comes with significant delivery pressure. These environments are complex, highly regulated and require strong engineering foundations, experienced people and the ability to scale delivery without compromising quality.
In a short period, Acuity helped us assemble a multidisciplinary team of 15 senior professionals, including full-stack, backend and frontend engineers, engineering leads, cloud engineers and DevOps specialists.
What distinguished Acuity was the time they took to understand our technical requirements, delivery expectations, risks and organisational constraints. They did not simply fill vacancies; they worked with us to find people with the right capabilities and mindset to contribute from the outset.
Their support has played an important role in strengthening our engineering capacity and capability. Based on my experience, I understand why Acuity has maintained such a longstanding relationship with the Group.
