Hire SA Talent is an independently operated UK information and referral website created by Jeremy Farrar. It helps UK businesses understand the practical options for hiring South African professionals, compare likely costs and decide whether recruitment, an Employer of Record or another route may fit. Hire SA Talent does not itself employ candidates or provide legal, tax or EOR services.

How the relationship with SA Konexion works
SA Konexion is the delivery partner described on this website. If a UK business decides to proceed, SA Konexion may provide the agreed candidate sourcing, recruitment, South African employment, payroll and Employer of Record services.
- Hire SA Talent: information, comparisons, initial guidance and introductions.
- SA Konexion: the agreed recruitment, employment, payroll and EOR service.
- The UK client: selects the candidate and manages their day-to-day work, systems, priorities and performance.
Any service agreement, employment arrangement and fees are agreed directly between the client and SA Konexion. Hire SA Talent is not a party to those service contracts.
How Hire SA Talent is paid
Hire SA Talent may receive a referral fee if a business introduced through this website goes on to use SA Konexion. This does not increase the published service fee unless a provider explicitly confirms otherwise. Commercial terms and current fees should always be checked directly with SA Konexion before proceeding.
How the guidance is prepared
Guides are written for UK businesses and reviewed for clarity, source quality and practical usefulness. Where a page discusses South African employment rules, payroll or statutory obligations, it links to official sources such as the South African Government, SARS and the Department of Employment and Labour. Pricing and salary examples are dated, assumptions are stated and readers are told where professional advice is appropriate.
The website provides general information, not legal, tax, accounting or employment advice. Rules, provider terms and fees can change.
