Marketing, communications and digital recruiter Fabric has opened a new office in Johannesburg, South Africa.

The firm says the move is due to increased demand from South African-based companies, previously handled by Fabric’s headquarters in London. 

Justin Kent, managing director of Fabric, says: “As well as offering companies access to our talent pool and growing our network, the move is strategically important. We know from experience in our London and Dubai offices that there are large numbers of South Africans working in the communications, marketing and digital industries in both territories. We will now be able to consult directly with South African professionals who may be looking to return home or indeed re-locate to the GCC and Europe.”
