Corporate Relocation Management Services

Our approach to corporate relocation management involves providing a single hub for the coordination and management of relocation services. You can then add additional service packages and regions as you require, tailoring your relocation management to your specific business.

We will work with you to design a relocation programme with the correct mix of relocation packages based on the needs of you and your relocating employees. We will then provide the experienced team, communications, processes, technology, reporting, and global network and implement everything to ensure that each component works together to provide a seamless solution.

Each case authorisation we receive will be allocated to one of our experienced Relocation Managers. They will conduct the initial briefing call with your relocating employee and guide and support them throughout their international move. Everything is managed according to your defined policies and designed to ensure an exceptional assignee relocation experience.

We can provide support to your team by offering access to our network of independent global mobility advisors. They offer assistance with policies, assignment budgets and assignment letters. Working with our independent advisors we support your relocating employees with pre-assignment visits, spousal/partner counselling, and arranging for cultural and language training. Our Relocation Managers will conduct needs assessments and ensure that your employees are fully prepared.

We synchronise the relocation and immigration process. Coordinating with approved immigration partners, we help your employees obtain work permits and visas on a global basis, contact any relevant authorities and ensure any paperwork is correct and accounted for, both for your assignees and any relocating family members.

Gerson Relocation provides a complete range of relocation destination services for in-house mobility teams looking to relocate their personnel around the world. Our relocation solution provides access to a global network of rigorously selected destination service providers in every location. For each location, we have two or more approved partners whom we have assessed and managed.

Our services at employee destinations cover everything, including; 

• Arranging orientation tours
• Using our local real estate connections
• Meeting at the airport
• Arranging temporary living
• Conducting accompanied home search visits
• Finding a new home
• Negotiating the lease
• Searching for schools in the new area
• Supporting the family whilst acclimatising

Once the home is secured, we coordinate the move process; organising the survey, packing, insurance, shipping (air, sea, road), storage, customs clearance and delivery. As part of the move, we can arrange for temporary housing and serviced accommodation while your relocating employee’s household goods are in transit. Our corporate relocation process covers all aspects of the move and settling in. Read below for a breakdown of the services we provide.

We arrange everything from welcoming your employee, utility connections, the property check-in and providing settling-in support for your relocating employee and accompanying dependents.

Whilst on assignment, our local service experts are available on the ground, along with property management and tenancy management support options available.

By selecting our expense management option, you outsource the management of all your relocation and assignment expenses. We can administer relocation expense reimbursements for your employees and process regular payments to suppliers such as utilities, rents, storage fees, school term fees and relocation allowances.

Our service covers tracking, auditing and reconciliation of the expense reports against your policy. We can make global payments in local currency and provide a complete audit trail.

Our experienced Relocation Managers support your relocating employee and focus on ensuring their relocation experience does not interfere with their new role. By looking after the needs of your employees, we ensure your department is not spending time dealing with noise created by service issues.

We provide you with a single point of contact, meaning you have full control of the management of your entire relocation programme.

Our reporting technology allows you, your team, and your company to have full transparency when creating, managing, and tracking your relocation program and its performance.

We work as an extension of your Global Mobility team to coordinate all aspects of relocation including immigration, relocation, moving and expense processing for global, local and regional programmes as well as individual projects.

As moving experts, we at Gerson Relocation understand that managing a corporate global mobility programme involves coordinating multiple providers across multiple locations. Employee relocation management must be executed on time, on budget, and person-focused. The risks involved with a poor transition for your employees can manifest themselves in various ways, including difficulty with talent retention due to difficulties during the employee relocation process. Providing adequate relocation management services for your most valuable commodity is vital if you want to build a competitive worldwide network. Gerson Relocation relocation management services can take all the stress but leave you all the control.

We are proud to have the FAIM quality certification for international moving and hold accreditation from FIDI and OMNI, which are the primary international associations responsible for upholding standards in international moving services.
