BigTalent

BigTalent is a boutique Talent Acquisition and Recruitment Consultancy based in Cape Town, South Africa. Founded in 2021 by Thelma Kruger, the company has quickly established itself as a trusted partner for organizations seeking to build exceptional teams in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics disciplines.

The firm was established after Thelma embarked on her career in recruitment in 2008, after completing an honours degree in Psychology at the University of Pretoria. She diligently climbed her way up the corporate ladder in a large JSE listed concern, where she grew from Recruitment Consultant to Senior Manager over the course of 13 devoted years before taking the leap to carve out her own path. Today, BigTalent operates with a compact team that delivers quality innovative solutions to local and international clients. With over 15 years of combined experience and more than 400 successful placements across 150 companies, the consultancy has built a reputation for connecting top-tier talent with organizations that need them most.

BigTalent offers a range of talent solutions including On-Demand Recruitment, Recruitment Process Outsourcing, and Targeted Candidate Marketing. Their relationship-first approach combined with a unique talent tech stack and great instincts enables them to make placements that truly elevate careers and build businesses. The company is 100% female-owned, Level 4 BBBEE certified, and proudly maintains a 100% placement rate for assignments taken on exclusively.
