Membership approval is a rigorous process. It is only awarded to companies that pass a comprehensive review process encompassing a financial and governance review, as well as client and peer/competitor interviews.

Founder-director Auguste (Gusti) Coetzer commented: “We are honoured to be part of the AESC, it is the gold standard of the industry. This membership gives our clients comfort that the service Signium Africa provides is of a global standard and that what they expect of an international search firm can be delivered by Signium Africa in South Africa. In addition, it gives us access to an exclusive global database of high calibre executives. This should not only give international companies but also local South African companies and state-owned entities assurance of Signium Africa’s ability to deliver.”

Signium Africa has developed strong relationships with a diverse client base working closely with the private and public sector both locally and cross-borders into Africa. It has maintained an excellent rate of growth and is known for its professional expertise at top level in corporate sub-Saharan Africa.
