Empowering Businesses with South African Talent

Global Search Awards’ Category Sponsors Kadraa, introduce themselves and their services.

At Kadraa Recruitment, we believe in two simple things: excellence and opportunity. Excellence in the calibre of people we connect to businesses, and opportunities for talented professionals who deserve a bigger stage to showcase their skills. That is why we are proud to sponsor this year’s Awards. They celebrate innovation, creativity, and ambition – the very same qualities that fuel everything we do.

Who We Are

Kadraa Recruitment was founded with one mission – to help companies in the UK, Europe, and the US grow stronger by building global teams that deliver the same quality as local hires, at a fraction of the cost. We specialise in connecting businesses with outstanding professionals based in South Africa. Every person we place works remotely, seamlessly integrating into our clients’ organisations as though they were sitting right across the office.

Our focus areas are digital marketing, technology, and development – industries where talent is the engine of progress. From seasoned developers and sharp digital marketers to multi-skilled operations specialists, our candidates bring expertise, reliability, and fresh perspectives to every project.

We are proud to be different from traditional recruitment firms. Where many agencies focus only on filling seats, we build long-term partnerships – ensuring that every hire helps our clients scale efficiently and sustainably.

Why South Africa?

Some might ask: why South Africa? The answer is simple. South Africa is home to a highly educated, English-speaking workforce that rivals the best talent globally. Professionals there are trained to international standards, adaptable, and ambitious. The cultural alignment with the UK, Europe and the US is strong, and the time zone overlap makes collaboration easy and natural.

For our clients, this translates into a strategic advantage: they can grow their teams with top-tier professionals without the burden of inflated costs. On average, hiring through Kadraa can improve profits by up to 70% per head compared to local hires – and that is without compromising on quality. In fact, many of our clients report not just cost savings, but increased output and quality of work.

In today’s competitive landscape, that is the difference between keeping up and leading the way.

Why We’re Sponsoring

Sponsorship is more than putting our name on an event. For us, it is about celebrating and supporting the values that drive business forward – creativity, resilience, and growth. The Awards bring together some of the brightest and most ambitious organisations, and we see ourselves as part of that story.

By sponsoring, we want to shine a light on the power of thinking differently about recruitment. Too many businesses are held back by high staffing costs or a shortage of skilled people. We want to show that there is another way – one that strengthens businesses while creating opportunities for talented individuals abroad.

This is not outsourcing in the old-fashioned sense. It is a partnership. It is about companies accessing brilliant people who become integral members of their teams – not just names on a contractor list.

Real Impact, Real Stories

One of our proudest achievements has been helping fast-growing digital marketing agencies and tech companies unlock growth that once seemed out of reach.

• A software company we work with hired 12 developers through Kadraa. Within the first year, they saved over half a million pounds in staffing costs while accelerating their product roadmap.

• A leading agency partnered with us to hire 21 digital marketing specialists. The result? They reversed years of overspending on staff, boosted margins, and unlocked the ability to pitch for bigger clients.

• For many smaller firms, a single hire through Kadraa has been transformational – the difference between saying yes to growth opportunities or being forced to turn them down.

These are not just numbers – they are proof that when you match the right talent with the right business, incredible things happen.

Looking Ahead

The future of work is global. Remote collaboration is no longer a backup plan; it is the standard for ambitious businesses. At Kadraa Recruitment, we are excited to be at the forefront of this shift.

We see a world where companies can scale without limits, where geography no longer dictates access to talent, and where brilliant professionals in South Africa and beyond can thrive on the global stage.

That is why sponsoring these Awards feels so natural. They are about recognising excellence, breaking boundaries, and celebrating those who refuse to settle for “good enough.” We could not agree more with that vision.

A Final Word

To every finalist and attendee at this year’s Awards: we salute you. Your creativity, your determination, and your success inspire us. Whether you are building the next big tech solution, redefining digital marketing, or leading in your field, know that Kadraa Recruitment is cheering you on.

And if you ever find yourself facing the challenge of scaling your team, know that we are here – ready to connect you with the people who can take your business further, faster, and smarter.

Here is to excellence. Here is to opportunity. Here is to the future of work.
