Moving to a new property is traumatic and stressful, starting a different job has its challenges, when combined with relocating to a new country can be a combination of pressure, anxiety and stress!
Companies and HR departments are all too aware of the impact that stress can have on employee well-being, performance as well as the overall cost. As a result, companies wanting their employees to have a positive, stress-free move will engage PPS to make the experience a positive one.
A ‘long-haul’ relocation requires careful planning and meticulous organising compared to a move within the same country. There is more red tape to cut through, longer lead times to consider and a far greater number of practical and emotional factors to navigate. Knowing the intricacies involved combined with over 29 years of experience means PPS will avoid the potential difficulties and pitfalls in managing the whole process.
PPS have worked with some major blue-chip corporate companies relocating their employees to the UK for over 29 years. One Telecommunications corporate client has been using PPS for 25+years continuously. As a result, PPS delivers a professional, personal service to companies employee’s and their families from where-ever in the world into the UK.
In our experience, the difference between a great move and a difficult move comes down to three key things:
1. Addressing the employees needs
Addressing the employees needs start with understanding what is really important to them. We can advise on all areas of living and working in the UK, it is not limited to housing and education. We know that for an individual or family to feel settled all aspects of their life need to be supported – from where they will seek medical attention to where they can exercise, even how to secure that all important parking permit!
2. Regular communication and managing the process
We know that being informed is being in control, so we make sure we agree how our clients would like to be kept up to date with developments and make sure that communication is clear and consistent throughout the whole process. An international move involves lots of parties and lots of stages, so this is key. We will keep the company and employee up to date with all key milestones.
3. Keeping the process straightforward and undemanding
Experience has told us that by addressing the needs of the employee and streamlining the process, success is easier to achieve, and the employee believes that they are valued, and have received the best possible help and service.
Companies that regularly move their staff around the world understand that employees need help and support to make the transition as easy as possible for them and their families.
Please talk to us about how we can help your company and employees. We know that a successful relocation means that everything is taken care of, from belongings arriving safely, to finding a property that becomes a new home, to children finding a good school and family pets being included in the plans.
Guidance and experience from our team will help your employees have the support they need to ensure that their relocation experience is a positive one that leaves them feeling excited and positive about life in a new country and a new chapter in their career.
