Goodtalent a trusted name in the talent acquisition and Goodtalent   Paysurge an Africa-focused EOR, AOR, Payroll and Payments services, is   excited to announce its rebranding to Workskuad.com.   This change reflects the company's evolving vision and commitment to   delivering innovative staffing solutions tailored to the diverse needs of   global and local businesses across Africa. As Workskuad.com, the   company is poised to expand its reach, enhance its service offerings,   and continue its mission to connect top African talents with leading   organisations, while ensuring compliant payroll and payments across the  continent.

This rebrand will go live by the end of October 2024.

Why the Rebrand?

The rebranding from Goodtalent and Goodtalent Paysurge to   Workskuad.com represents more than just a name change—it's a   strategic move that aligns with the company’s growth and the shifting   dynamics of the African market. Over the years, Goodtalent has built a   strong reputation for its ability to source and place high-caliber professionals and ensuring compliant EOR, AOR and payroll services   across various industries. However, as the company expanded its   services and capabilities, it became clear that a new brand identity was  needed to reflect its broader vision.

The name "Workskuad" was chosen to encapsulate the company's   commitment to building cohesive, high-performing teams ("squads") that drive business success. It also highlights the company’s focus on   delivering not just individual talent, but comprehensive workforce   solutions that support the unique needs of businesses operating in  Africa's diverse and dynamic markets.

Story about the rebrand

A lot of feedback from our existing customers about harmonising our   hiring services and our payroll business. Our current payroll brand   (paysurge.co) does not 'scream' our capabilities for EOR, AOR, Staffing.  While 'Goodtalent' only portrays recruitment.   We did a poll with our customers and 'Workskuad' was unanimous  amongst other brand names.
