Our Services

AES Global is a specialist talent acquisition partner operating across Technology,
Finance, FinTech, Digital and Marketing. We connect ambitious businesses
with the exceptional people they need to succeed.

Permanent Recruitment

End-to-end search and placement for permanent roles across all our sectors. We work as a true extension of your hiring team, taking time to understand your culture, your goals and exactly who you need.

Contract and Interim Staffing

Fast, flexible access to specialist contract talent. Whether you need to move quickly on a project or bridge a gap, we place high-calibre contractors who hit the ground running.

Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO):

For businesses that need dedicated recruitment support embedded within their organisation, our RPO service delivers consistent, scalable hiring without the overhead.

Executive Search

For senior, board-level and hard-to-fill roles, we apply a rigorous, research-led methodology to find leaders who will make a genuine difference.

AI-Assisted Recruitment

We use artificial intelligence throughout our search and selection process to move faster, go deeper and surface better candidates. Our team is trained to combine AI capability with human judgment, so our clients benefit from both speed and quality.

Managed Resource Services

Senior South African tech professionals working inside your team. We handle all contracts, payroll and compliance. You pay one clean monthly invoice. Typical saving of 35 to 50% versus UK or European contractor rates. See the dedicated Managed Resource page for full details.

Working with AES Global has been a seamless and professional experience. They take the time to truly understand our business needs and culture rather than simply filling vacancies. The quality of candidates presented has been exceptional, well-vetted and aligned both technically and culturally. They have become a trusted recruitment partner that we know we can rely on.

Netcare Limited

I have worked with AES Global for nearly eight years across two companies. The team has successfully placed candidates across a variety of highly technical and non-technical roles, from Finance positions to specialised roles such as Ruby on Rails Engineers and Data Engineers. AES Global continues to be my preferred agency for recruitment support due to their reliability, responsiveness, and ability to deliver quality candidates.
