At Badger & Bird Talent, we believe in the power of partnership.

Rooted in the symbiosis found in South Africa's wild heart, we draw inspiration from the Honey Badger and the Honey Guide bird. Just as these two creatures work in harmony to find hidden honey, we partner with you to uncover exceptional talent.

We understand that finding the right people often requires a dual approach, and we embody both roles for our clients:

• Sometimes, we are the Badger: determined, unstoppable, and tenacious, digging deep into the talent landscape. We uncover hidden gems in the deepest depths, relentlessly searching for those unique individuals who might otherwise be overlooked.

• Other times, we are the Bird: precise and direct, soaring high to gain a bird's-eye view of the market. From this vantage point, we zoom in with pinpoint accuracy, identifying the exact source of the talented people your business needs.

Our Partnership in Action

For over 16 years, we've leveraged this unique approach to become a dependable partner for a diverse range of clients. From dynamic start-ups defining their vision and ambitious scale-ups accelerating their growth, to established corporate giants and agile agency businesses, we've empowered them to achieve their business goals by connecting them with exceptional people.

We specialise in permanent and contract recruitment and executive search in the IT industry, ensuring you find the right fit for your immediate and long-term needs.

Beyond recruitment, our comprehensive talent consulting services include refining your recruitment processes, enhancing your talent and employer brand, improving the employee experience, streamlining onboarding, and auditing your employee value proposition.

Our mission is to provide professional and dependable services that give you a vital competitive edge in a scarce-skill talent landscape.

Our success is measured by yours: the improved performance and strategic advantage our talented placements bring to your team.

We approach every partnership with:

• Authenticity: We build relationships based on honesty and understanding, committed to open communication about our process and progress.

• Empathy: We take the time to listen: to your business needs, your unique culture, and the aspirations of the talent we seek to connect you with.

• Delivery: Our track record of meeting deadlines without sacrificing the quality of our candidates and delivery allow you to rest assured we will meet and exceed your talent goals.

At Badger & Bird Talent, we are your dedicated partner in finding the talent that helps your business thrive. We're here to guide you to your sweet success.
