Why use a relocation consultancy?

The preparedness of a company to use a relocation consultancy to provide support for a prospective employee shows a genuine and professional concern for the well being and speedy integration into the new community of the employee and family. By such action the company infers integrity and compassion and establishes itself as a responsible entity.

A recent survey has shown that personnel who had relocation consultancy support are more likely to remain in their employment than those who had interim accommodation only, provided. Many of those who were dissatisfied with their positions said they felt they and their families had been abandoned on their arrival, with pressure placed to find permanent accommodation quickly which led to stress and tension between the partners.

Not only does relocation consultancy support dramatically reduce the amount of time spent in temporary accommodation, therefore being cost effective but it also leads to a happy employee who feels that the company has recognised their worth in providing them with full support to integrate into the company and the community as quickly and smoothly as possible.

Many companies believe, quite incorrectly, that by paying for interim accommodation (often for long periods) they are fulfilling their obligation of providing relocation support. This can in fact, work to the detriment of the company as the partner is often left in short term accommodation, with no knowledge of the city and feel they are expected to do all the work of finding permanent accommodation
