Value-Added and Relocation/Destination Services:

In recent years, there have been two incredibly hot topics in the world of global mobility; the rising popularity of international assignments, and the duty of care of employers to ensure employee wellbeing – particularly in the case of those who have been relocated for a period of work.

Since 1996, Mauve has recognised the importance of a global outlook in business and has staunchly promoted the highest standards of personalised care for in-country workers. In that time, we have worked hard to develop a trusted local partner network to support with a variety of supporting services once our clients’ workers are in-country.

Mauve’s representatives will this week head to EuRA’s annual European conference – EuRA is Europe’s premier relocation association, and the conference is a key opportunity to locate expert new channel partners operating in a similar space to Mauve. Before being incorporated into our network, our channel partner team carries out rigorous due diligence checks via a renowned third party to ensure they uphold the same market-leading standards as Mauve. Via a combination of these partners and our own in-house staff and entities, we are able to supply a myriad of value-added services designed to help your workers acclimatise to their new position.

Below, we explore some of the value-added services available to support an international assignment project. These can be utilised as standalone solutions or built into a bespoke package designed around the specific needs of your organisation.
