Key IT and The Key Recruitment Group have been a trusted partner to Acora for several years and have played a key role in helping us successfully build and grow our South African operation.
From the outset, they ensured our South African team felt fully integrated into Acora through aligned employment practices, close collaboration with our HR function, and a strong understanding of our company culture. Their support with salary benchmarking and local market insight has also helped us attract and retain high-quality talent in a competitive market.
Beyond Employer of Record services, they have provided valuable guidance on local business practices, operational setup, and ongoing support to both our leadership team and employees in South Africa.I would highly recommend them to any company looking to establish or expand a team in South Africa.”
