Our Clients.

Talent Collectiv, headquartered in London with operations in Cape Town, was established to provide embedded offshore  360° Recruitment Consultants to:

​

​

Established recruitment agencies looking to expand their service offerings without adding significant overheads.

​

Many established agencies find themselves in a position where they need to take on more projects or enter new markets, but hesitate to scale their internal teams due to the high fixed costs of hiring and retaining full-time staff. By utilising offshore embedded consultants, these agencies can quickly add capacity, serve more clients, and maintain consistent quality - all while staying cost-efficient.

Startup Team_edited.jpg

High-growth startups with a need for rapid team scaling and streamlined hiring processes.​

For fast-moving startups, growth often outpaces their internal recruiting capabilities. They may face urgent demands to fill key roles in order to keep up with product development or market expansion. Offshore embedded recruitment solutions provide these startups with an experienced, ready-to-deploy recruitment team that can meet tight deadlines, improve time-to-hire, and allow internal resources to remain focused on core business priorities.

Boutique firms in niche markets who need specialised expertise without the burden of permanent hires.

Smaller agencies or firms that specialise in niche areas often need highly skilled recruiters who understand their unique industry requirements. However, hiring and maintaining such expertise in-house can be expensive and time-consuming. Offshore embedded consultants bring a high level of specialisation and flexibility, enabling boutique firms to access top talent without long-term commitments, thereby improving their competitive edge.

Executive search firms that require additional capacity for high-level recruitment projects.

Executive search firms handle complex, time-intensive searches for top-tier leadership roles. These firms often experience fluctuations in workload, making it impractical to maintain a large, permanent recruitment team. Offshore embedded consultants allow executive search firms to scale their resources quickly and efficiently, ensuring they can meet client demands during peak periods while maintaining exceptional service quality.
