Says Relocate UK Manager, Louise Jobson: "We are aware that many of our corporate clients are facing challenging times and that there are ways we can help them to save money. Every company has different needs when it comes to relocation and we pride ourselves on being able to adapt our services - and come up with totally new services - to suit them."
"As an example, we worked recently with our longest-standingclient - an international pharmaceutical company that has beenusing our services for 15 years - to help them streamline their relocation policy and develop a number of tailor-made relocation packages for them to offer to their employees at different levels within the company. We came up with different packagesfor graduates, management and senior management, and also gave them advice on what to include in their policy, from deciding on eligibility of employees for relocation services to relocation allowances and setting rental allowances based on current rents."
"Another project we recently worked on was for one of our biggest clients, a company which owns hundreds of residential properties attached to its many business premises across the UK. We produced a substantial report for them detailing all theproperties they had that would be suitable to rent ourprivately, how much they would be worth on the open market, and what would need to be done to the properties to bring in the best possible rental income. This involved liaising with hundreds of letting agents across the country and took a number of months to complete, something our clients did not have theexperience or resources to undertake."
