GLOBAL CAPABILITIES STATEMENT SOUTH AFRICA
PEOPLE. PROCESS. EXPERTISE. Founded in 2007, we are an international recruiter of senior management professionals across the real estate, corporate real estate, funds, development, hospitality and infrastructure niches. With a growing global reputation in our markets, our success is built on our vastly experienced people, our rigorously designed process, and our meaningful sector expertise. Through services including retained search, project recruitment and contingent search, we support global businesses and iconic institutions across sectors including commercial real estate, education, government, health and life sciences, heritage and culture, hospitality, infrastructure and construction, living assets and more. Recruiting across Europe, Asia, the Middle East, India and Africa, with our new Riyadh office opening in spring 2024, we’re growing rapidly. We work hard to create a culture where our people bring their true selves to work, and to operate with the freedom they need to perform at the highest level. We’re proud to have created a fantastic and unique team, one that can really benefit our clients and candidates in the hiring journey. Our values – Inventive, Inclusive, Forensic and Relentless – are at the core of this people-centred culture. That culture is driving our rapid growth and continued success.
A DATA-DRIVEN PROCESS Our recruitment processes are unique and play a vital role in why we’re chosen by the biggest and best-known companies in our sector. We believe it’s our responsibility, as a recruiter, to be objective, data-led and watertight in everything we do. So, our process is designed to empower clients to make unbiased hiring decisions. It’s never fixed or inflexible – senior-level recruitment can’t be. It’s rigorous and objective by design – eliminating risks and maximising opportunities. Ultimately, it replaces instinctive decision-making with transparent, systematised methods. Time and again, it results not only in more diverse workplaces – but more successful ones.

MRG have been a pleasure to work with and recently partnered with The Langham Group on a Senior Executive Director appointment. We have been impressed by the level of professionalism, focus, attention to detail and dedication exhibited by the entire team. They presented an excellent shortlist in a niche sector requirement to tight deadlines. Throughout the search, MRG maintained transparent and open communication, providing regular updates on the progress of the search. A robust and speedy recruitment process where Amy and Nicky consulted and advised. Their commitment to delivering results with integrity and excellence is commendable and we look forward to fostering our relationship with future positions.
