The Core Group - background

The first 20 years

Previously known as Havenga Rossouw Viljoen Consultation Services (HRV), The Core Group was founded by Mr Daan Havenga in 1993. Through hard work, determination and a mission of delivering a service by being pro-active, utilising technology and technical knowledge to the maximum, clients’ expectations were exceeded through the adding of value to each client.

---

HRV was more than just an auditor; HRV was the business partner each client needed to succeed in the very competitive economic climate. Through the past 20 years HRV expanded to be more than just an audit and accounting firm. HRV lived up to their mission statement of being pro-active by expanding their services constantly.

The future - now

The Core Group believes that every individual within the group must be able to deliver exceptional service to each of our clients by having a positive attitude, current knowledge and a passion for their work. This is achieved through continuous training, both internally and externally, equipping our people with the latest technology and by focussing on procedures and methods to enhance the speed and quality of work being done.

People are our biggest asset and therefore we believe that the group’s strength is determined by the quality of the people we train and employ. We believe that the people in our group must be self- motivated, positive and pro-active people with a balance between work, family and other personal interests. The Core Group strives in maintaining a pleasant working environment where each individual can reach their full potential as individual person and as a team member. The Core Group, consist of people with exceptional skills in their various professions, who takes personal responsibility to satisfy client needs and are focused in creating long-term business relationships. We strive to become extraordinary people, and to do so, we believe in a balance in life of working and playing hard.

We believe in creating an appreciative and supportive team culture within the company, contributing to our success and pleasure of working in our group of companies.

The Core Group’s main objective is to provide tailored made services, for the specific financial needs of our clients. All this in one convenient group of service companies. Through partnering with specialists in different service areas and industries we are able to offer our clients a wide range of quality and professional services under one roof. 

With our clients being the CORE of our circle of services, The Core Group believes that the future is greatly determined by what is done today. Therefore: the future – now!
