About 21st Century

21st Century is a specialist Remuneration, Organisation Development and Change consultancy, with national and international capability, and a B-BBEE level 2 rating.

Our sustainable Remuneration & HR solutions are supported by our comprehensive audited salary survey database and a wide range of web-based Remuneration and HR systems and associated training courses.

We are one of the largest Remuneration and HR consultancies in Africa, with a team of more than 60 skilled specialists, and we service over 1700 clients – including non-profit organisations, unlisted companies, government, parastatals and over two thirds of the companies listed on the JSE.

 

BBBEE level 2 contributor

21st Century was awarded a Level 2 B-BBEE verification certificate in July 2015 by SNG Grant Thornton.

 

As we are a value adding supplier, this allows our clients to claim a preferential procurement spend of 125% of the value of the procurement from 21st Century. 21st Century’s B-BBEE shareholding is 51%, with a further 10% ringfenced for staff.

Remuneration and HR are complex. We want to make it simpler for you to find your way around.

In 1996, 21st Century was born, and we set out to design and provide pragmatic, easy-to-understand Remuneration and HR solutions. Since then we have developed a formidable reputation for delivering realistic, practical, output-driven Remuneration and HR solutions.

Remuneration and HR – what’s the connection?

Job profiling and job evaluation are at the root of all remuneration and HR processes.

Strategic goals can only be met when remuneration and HR processes and structures are sound, valid, well planned and well executed. It is imperative that all of these structures are developed from the basis of accurate, fair, defensible job profiles and job evaluations.
