We are dedicated to providing a seamless, turnkey solution to ensure our clients get the right person, in terms of skill and integrity, at the right time to fulfil their organisational needs. Notwithstanding the name change due to the acquisition of Ernst & Young’s Advisory Secondments business to Secondments, the business has been in existence since 2003. The business was acquired as a going concern with the full staff complement, including all clients. This change broadens the scope of clients that Secondments can offer services to. Following a successful 13-year working relationship with Ernst & Young (EY), Siphiwe Dondolo, Jayson Theron and Carl Endenburg acquired the global audit and advisory firm’s secondment portfolio.
