Our Story: Five Years of Growth, One New Beginning
Every successful business has a story, and ours began five years ago with Phoenix Recruitment and Resourcing.
What started as a vision to help individuals pursue employment opportunities beyond South Africa gradually developed into a journey filled with determination, challenges, valuable relationships, professional growth, and meaningful milestones.
Over the years, we have had the privilege of guiding aspiring educators through the complexities of pursuing international teaching careers.
Our journey has taught us that international placement is about far more than securing a position. It is about helping individuals gain confidence, broaden their horizons, experience different cultures, and work towards a better future.
Why We Became Ethara Global Placements
As our business evolved, so did our vision. We recognised the need for a brand identity that more accurately reflected our international focus, specialised placement services, and long-term aspirations.
The transition from Phoenix Recruitment and Resourcing to Ethara Global Placements represents this evolution.
Our new identity reflects a renewed commitment to professionalism, international opportunities, career development, and meaningful connections between educators and educational institutions.
While our name has changed, the foundation on which our business was built remains unchanged. The experience, relationships, lessons, and trust established throughout our five-year journey continue to guide us.
An Important Message to Existing Phoenix Candidates
