About us
Services
We feel that it is important for you to know us, who we are and what we do, as it is for us to know you. By knowing us better, our philosophy, service and the way we operate, we trust that you will be in a better position to judge when we could be of assistance. By introducing the key people who seek to be of service to you we hope to build mutual respect and confidence.
We know about people, and we know that businesses can best achieve their short and longer term objectives by focusing more attention on their most important resource: people. In the words of Charles E St Thomas, our founder over 50 years ago:
People make our products and develop our services. People generate and spend our capital. People are the source of our know-how, the basis of our experience. People utilise our plant and equipment, direct the consumption of our raw materials, create and develop our markets and determine our reputation.
This is why The St Thomas Group has developed its recruitment philosophy, from inception, in a way that stresses the over-riding role of people, and why we feel this approach is of particular importance today. And even more so tomorrow.
To provide a highly professional recruitment service to companies and institutions in Southern Africa and Internationally.
We don't strive to be the biggest recruitment company, merely the best. To set standards of excellence in client recruitment service that others will seek to emulate. To provide a reputable and reliable recruitment service to our clients that will foster lasting relationships as respected and trusted business partners. Through adhering to only the highest standards of confidentiality, discretion, responsibility and ethics, to offer the top executive search, recruitment and consulting service in the country.
Common to all the services we offer is our attention to detail in pursuit of recruitment service excellence. We take a close interest in our clients and their unique recruitment needs. During and after any assignment we carefully monitor the candidate's progress, because we are as concerned about our clients success as they are. Because we really care about people. And it's only by getting to know intimately our clients corporate culture, their recruitment needs and requirements as well as those of their people, that we are able to provide that superior recruitment service.
