The practical steps from first conversation to your first South African hire.

Book a short discovery call. We clarify the roles you need, confirm salary benchmarks and total costs, and agree next steps. From there you can either brief us to recruit or hand over a candidate you have already chosen. Most clients go from first call to signed hire within weeks.

Once a candidate accepts, contract issue, right-to-work checks and payroll registration typically complete within one to two weeks. Start dates are usually determined by the candidate's notice period at their current employer rather than by our process. Veridian Global keeps you updated at every step.

The role and job description, agreed salary and benefits, start date, working hours and reporting lines, plus your company details for the services agreement. Veridian Global handles everything on the employee side, including personal details, tax registration and banking information, under strict data protection controls.

Yes. Recruitment is part of the service. Brief us on the role and we source, screen and shortlist South African candidates, drawing on established talent networks in Cape Town, Johannesburg and beyond. You interview and choose; we then employ your pick compliantly. One partner, end to end.

Veridian Global drafts a South African law contract reflecting your commercial terms and signs it as the legal employer. You sign a services agreement with Veridian Global. Intellectual property created by the employee is assigned through the chain to your company, and this is checked on every contract.

No. Veridian Global works with clients from a single hire upwards. Many relationships start with one role as a proof of concept and grow into full teams once the model proves itself. Pricing works the same way at any headcount: per employee, per month.

Yes, and it is often the wise move. Long-standing contractors who work like employees create misclassification risk. Veridian Global moves them onto compliant employment contracts with continuity handled carefully, protecting both the relationship and your company. Conversions are one of the most common ways clients start with us.

Day-to-day management stays with you. When formal matters arise, such as performance processes, grievances or disciplinary issues, Veridian Global's local team manages the legally required procedure and documentation, keeping you informed and protected from CCMA missteps. You are never left to interpret South African labour law alone.

You tell Veridian Global the situation and we manage a lawful exit: correct grounds, fair procedure, notice or an agreed settlement, final pay and UIF documentation. Done properly, terminations in South Africa are entirely manageable; done informally, they end up at the CCMA. That is precisely why we handle them.

Veridian Global operates under POPIA, South Africa's data protection law, and UK GDPR, since data moves across both jurisdictions. Employee information is collected, stored and shared only as needed to run compliant employment, under documented agreements. Data handling terms are set out clearly in the services agreement.

Yes, arrangements can be made. Many clients ship or fund laptops directly, and Veridian Global can coordinate local procurement, secure device setup and, where needed, co-working space in Cape Town or other cities. Tell us the setup you want and we will build it into the engagement.

Yes. Employment law, tax and payroll are national, so an employee in Durban costs the same to employ as one in Cape Town. Veridian Global employs staff in any South African city or town, provided connectivity and any agreed office arrangements are in place.
