Local Support and advice

The procedures and paperwork required to set up personal and family life in a new country vary widely. Local on the ground Relocation Consultants have an in-depth understanding and knowledge of the host location ensuring they can provide the best-customised advice and support when your employees arrive. This can greatly ease the transition and reduce frustration, especially where there are language barriers or cultural differences.

Flexible services

Our flexible settling-in services allow each employee to choose the support they require when they need it - focusing on the areas they find most confusing or of most benefit to their family.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT SETTLING IN SERVICES

Do we have to choose the services we require upfront?

No. Typically our clients will pay for a settling-in service of a number of hours and these can be used for whichever services the employee and their family determine they will need during the settling in period. 

Our services are fully flexible and will usually be discussed during the initial needs assessment so that we can create a customised programme based on individual needs. 

Why should I provide Settling-in Services to my employees?

Settling-in services reduce frustration, anxiety and stress for the whole family. 

Navigating new processes and paperwork at the same time as moving your whole home, learning a new culture or language and starting a new job with a new team can be overwhelming. A little support in these areas can be the difference between a happy family who are learning to live and thrive in their host location and a potentially failed assignment.
