Approximately 40 professional staff work across our three offices in South Africa. Our staff include qualified chartered accountants, risk specialists, internal auditors,tax specialists, and our consultants and other technically qualified professionals include specialised skills such as IT and forensic specialists.
We also employ a number of skilled contractors as required on client assignments.
Our strategic alliance with Big Four global professional services firm EY will provide the opportunity for Motlanalo to gain audit experience in the private sector, with initial focus on bank audits, on the back of EY’s own growth and capability in that sector.
The partnership will enable EY to leverage Motlanalo’s skills and knowledge, in tandem with our firm gaining access to EY’s global network of resources, integrated teams and auditing expertise.
EY is sub-contracting the services of Motlanalo on an on-going basis and in January 2019 the alliance took effect as we began supporting EY on one of their large audit clients.
We are pleased to be part of an alliance that supports the transformation of our profession on many levels and provides offers an opportunity for inclusive growth for our firm. Through this partnership, our three offices will have access to unrivalled growth and learning opportunities that will ultimately benefit our clients.
