Relocation Services
One Stop Shopping: So you’ll feel at home, wherever you live
One of life’s greatest opportunities can also be a great challenge: Moving your family abroad to take on a new professional challenge. A new culture with strange customs, different business practices, and new colleagues - the list is as exciting but can also be exhausting. Whether you yourself has accepted the challenge, or if you’re an HR professional responsible for employee transfers: Max Jacobi Move Management opens the way for a successful assignment abroad. We handle everything from A to Z.
From visas and host-country documentation, orientation visits before the move, cross-cultural training, and home-finding through to setting up utilities, school registration, employment opportunities for spouses, we offer a full range of services designed to help transferees and their families get settled in to their new surrounding as soon as possible, all of which are linked to the removal schedule to provide a seamless service.
Adapting to local culture, laws and customs, as well as ensuring the comfort and well-being of the transferee’s family are the greatest obstacles to a successful assignment abroad. Removing these obstacles opens the way to a productive, enriching experience for the transferee, their family and their employer. Good support at the start of an assignment reduces early termination of assignments and employee turnover.
No matter where you’re coming from or where you’re going to, as a shareholder of Harmony Relocation Network we have you covered worldwide. We are able to provide comprehensive relocation services in nearly every country of the world.
