AltGen South Africa

AltGen South Africa is a pure play renewable energy recruitment firm founded in 2012, specialising in sourcing and deploying renewable energy talent across Africa and the United Kingdom. The company offers three core service lines: bespoke recruitment solutions leveraging an extensive renewable energy network, comprehensive manpower services, and employer of record (EOR) solutions that handle all in-country employment, legal, and compliance matters on behalf of international businesses. AltGen combines local market knowledge with international reach to help clients hire with confidence and candidates find opportunities that shape the future of the energy transition.

Since its inception, AltGen has grown alongside the renewable energy industry across South Africa and the African continent. The company's specialisation is exclusively within the renewable energy sector, where it maintains deep expertise and established networks. This focused approach allows AltGen to provide highly targeted recruitment strategies and industry-specific knowledge that generic recruitment firms cannot match.

AltGen operates across multiple African markets and the United Kingdom, with physical offices in Stellenbosch and satellite locations in Pofadder and De Aar in South Africa, Windhoek in Namibia, and Fulham in London. The company also provides manpower services in Botswana, Namibia, Kenya, and South Africa. Clients choose AltGen for its combination of on-the-ground local expertise, international reach, rapid response times, and a team of dedicated specialists who provide transparent, professional support throughout the entire recruitment and placement process.
