When imagining corporate relocations, it’s easy to picture packed boxes and moving trucks. But the reality is much more involved, especially in Australia. Australians are increasingly taking their skills and careers abroad, with top destinations for work including the United States, the United Kingdom, Singapore, New Zealand, and Canada. These countries are popular for their strong economic opportunities, English-speaking environments, and established expat communities. On the home front, interstate relocations to bustling cities like Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane also remain common for career-driven professionals.
We understand that a successful corporate move isn’t just about moving belongings – it’s about moving people, lives, and futures. That’s why Crown offers a holistic suite of services designed to make the transition smooth for employees and their families, while providing invaluable strategic support to businesses.
Here’s how Crown goes beyond the basics to make corporate relocations seamless and stress-free.
1. Destination services
Relocating to a new city or country can be overwhelming. Crown’s Destination Services are tailored to help employees and their families settle into their new homes quickly and comfortably. From finding suitable housing and schools to orientation tours of local neighbourhoods, we ensure assignees are equipped with the knowledge and resources to thrive in their new environment.
2. Immigration and visa support
Navigating immigration and visa requirements can be one of the trickiest parts of a corporate relocation. Crown’s immigration services take the complexity out of the process. Our experienced specialists provide end-to-end support, ensuring compliance with local laws and a smooth transition for employees entering a new country.
3. Cultural and language training
Cultural integration plays a critical role in the success of international assignments. Crown offers cultural and language training to help employees adapt to their new environment. These programs are designed to build cultural awareness and foster effective communication, reducing the risk of culture shock and enhancing workplace productivity.
4. Global mobility consulting
Corporate relocations aren’t just about moving people; they’re about aligning mobility strategies with business goals. Crown’s Global Mobility Consulting Services help organisations design and implement effective relocation policies, assess costs, and manage the complexities of international assignments. Our team works closely with HR and mobility managers to ensure every relocation aligns with the company’s objectives.
5. Expense management
Relocations often come with complex financial processes, including managing expenses, reimbursements, and vendor payments. Our expense management services streamline this process, providing transparency and efficiency. This allows employees and employers to focus on what matters most – settling in and staying productive.
6. Employee wellbeing
A successful relocation is about more than logistics; it’s about the wellbeing of the people involved. Crown supports employee wellbeing through tailored programs that address the emotional and physical challenges of moving. From counselling services to fitness resources, we’re committed to supporting employees throughout their journey.
7. Furniture rental and storage
Sometimes, corporate relocations involve temporary accommodation or a waiting period before settling into a permanent home. Crown offers furniture rental services to ensure employees have everything they need from day one. Additionally, our storage solutions provide secure, flexible options for storing belongings during transitions.
8. Ongoing support
Relocation doesn’t end once the boxes are unpacked. Crown provides ongoing support for assignees and their families, offering guidance on local services, tax advice, and even repatriation services at the end of assignments. Our commitment to our clients is long-term, ensuring their success well beyond the move.
At Crown Relocations, we understand that every corporate relocation is unique. That’s why we offer a tailored, end-to-end service that goes beyond boxes and logistics. Our comprehensive mobility services make domestic or international operations more effective — supporting your business with the strategy, managing the logistics, minimising the risks, improving the efficiency and increasing the return.
