Introduction
Personalised and Flexible Outsourced Recruitment Solutions
  • DataFin was established in 1999. We pride ourselves on the fact that we have established relationships with industry leaders and a vast majority of our business is repeat business.

  • We are certified labor brokers and are in possession of an IRP30, as a result we are able to administer contractors on our own payroll.

  • We are dedicated to playing an integral role in the development of South Africa as an IT hub, aiming to improve the recruitment process in the industry as a whole.
Part of the Bandwidth Barn

We're based in Cape Town in the BWB (Bandwidth Barn). The Barn is an IT accelerator, which is an initiative of CITI (Cape IT Initiative). The BWB comprises approximately 80 IT companies and is rapidly expanding. Being part of the BWB literally provides us with a passing trade of highly skilled candidates and exposure to exciting projects as well networking opportunities.

DataFin's Objectives

  • DataFin's Goals

    DataFin strives to be recognized as the best IT recruitment company in Cape Town and Johannesburg, using ethical business principles, focusing on technology driven industries and sourcing highly skilled people for cutting edge companies, thereby ensuring sustained profitability and adding value to all stakeholders.

    DataFin's Purpose

    We strive to achieve our goals through:
    • A fundamental understanding of client and candidates requirements;

    • An ethos of being deadline driven;

    • Finely tuned IT systems;

    • Using business partners nationally and internationally; and

    • Conducting business interaction with the highest level of integrity and ethical conduct.
    Our Ethos
    • We provide customized recruitment solutions, flexibility in fee structures and excellent service.

    • Client and candidate are treated as equal partners in the recruitment process.

    • All information pertaining to both parties is handled with the utmost confidentiality and respect.

    • We only refer candidates that are 100% suitable and reference checked prior to placement.

    • We only engage in business activities with credible clients.

    • An integral part of our ethos is our strong ethical values and high level of integrity.
    DataFin is Different!

    We have all heard the horror stories about the mistreatment of candidates and clients alike by agencies. It is therefore no wonder that people tend to put recruitment agencies into the same genre as used car salesmen and estate agents. As a result DataFin has moved away from the business model of the traditional recruitment agency:

  • Our owner-managed team have a vested interest in the delivery of superior service.
  • We take our role in improving standards within the recruitment industry very seriously.
  • We build long term relationships with clients, whereas the typical approach is a quick fix.
  • We do not discourage our candidates from approaching companies or other agencies.
  • We do not swamp the clients with CVs and have tight control over the quality of CV's.
  • We have the resources available to find the right candidate at short notice.
  • We do not overwhelm the client with phone calls, we only phone when necessary.
  • If we do not have a suitable candidate we let the client know and keep searching.
  • Once a position has been filled, adverts are removed immediately from e-recruitment sites.
  • We respond to all applicants and let them know when we don't have something suitable.
  • By being in the Barn we have access to candidates who would ordinarily not approach an agency.

    DataFin has a five year track record in providing reputable companies with like-minded suitable people. In the process, we have established and sustained, mutually beneficial relationships with a large portion of the Cape Town IT sector. Our success has cultivated a sense of trust with candidates and clients alike.
