Company Profile for 'Pinagare Human Capital Specialists'

Company Profile

Who are We

Pinagare is a specialist human resource management service provider. Roughly translated, our name means pinnacle, a single component providing pivotal support for an entire structure. The company is a closed corporation, with three members, all professionally qualified and experienced. We offer hassle free staffing and supplementary HR solutions, reducing the time required for clients to deal with a wide range of human resource activities.

Profesional

As professionals, we understand what professionals want, and will seek to bring into our fold, clients and candidates who are confident of the value of their contributions in the market and in turn value professional support to achieve their goals.

Personalised

We believe that people are more important than things, and will strive to build sound, long term relationships in order to make lasting contributions to the businesses, careers and lives of our clients and our candidates

Turnkey

Our services will extend beyond placing competent people, to facilitating induction, sound workplace relations, and guiding fair and dispute free exits. We relieve our clients from their employment burdens, by employing specialist skills, and making these available on a contractual basis

The human resources services industry, in particular recruitment and capacity building, is a very competitive environment as demonstrated by the plethora of providers in the market. The failure of many of these providers to understand and meet specific client needs represents a particular opportunity for our business. We are not a recruitment agency, but rather well qualified human resource practitioners aiming to serve a limited client base with a personalised, professional and turnkey service offering in the field of human capacity building.

Services

• Employment service providing professional and specialist contract staff in specialist areas.
• Search services for permanent placement of professional staff in the financial, human resources, commercial, engineering and other specialist categories.
• Payroll management and administration.

• Assessment centres development and facilitation for selection purposes.
• Provision of a range of people management tools and services for small to medium companies.

Methodology

Candidates presented for placement, either on a permanent or contract basis, will have been thoroughly assessed. Our assessment methods are competency based, thereby ensuring that criteria for selection are fair, equitable and defensible.

• Competency based interviewing techniques (eg. Behavioural event)
• Reference checking
• Relevant personal checks (eg credit, qualification, criminal)
• Psychometric test batteries where indicated
• Assessment centres to facilitate accurate selection.

Our methodology is aligned to international best practice and we continually strive to keep abreast of developments in our respective professional areas. Our clients are therefore assured of quality and care in the support we provide, as well as competitive pricing for services rendered.

Clients

Our existing clients come from long term relationships and networks across a range of industries and sectors, and we aim to grow our client base only to the extent that we can continue to provide consistent levels of quality service. A list of contactable references is provided at the end of this document.

We encourage our clients to grant exclusivity for a limited period in order for us to put together and implement a focused search campaign, which, in our experience delivers faster and better quality results
