Our people
Our positive reputation in the industry has led us to obtain a unique mix of specialists, many with previous leadership and broader HR experience.
Our people have a wealth of experience across multiple and varied industries – from leading financial institutions, cutting-edge telecoms, online retail giants to multinational oil and gas concerns.
They are equipped with the knowledge and expertise to navigate internal organisational challenges. They have the commercial awareness to appreciate the dynamic needs of your business, and recognise the need for connected and seamless service delivery and communication.
Partners
Our core business focus is to provide consistent and expert service excellence with a broad and effective global reach. This is vital to the success and longevity of our business and is of utmost importance to us. We cannot achieve it alone. Fundamental to our service is our ability to develop strong working relationships with our service partners. Expert, detailed and consistent vendor management is vital to our performance.
Global Accredited Partner Program
We have invested heavily over a number of years
We’ve established and develop our expansive and flexible Global Accredited Partner Programme spanning 186 countries where we oversee a network of experienced and specialist providers.
Skills ranging from shipping, freight and delivery agents to destination service providers such as home search, school search and orientation consultants, and travel, tax, immigration and visa experts – all of whom are fully licensed, accredited, vetted and managed to rigorous and targeted service delivery standards and legal and regulatory compliance procedures.
Committed to three core aims
Service excellence, cost control & risk mitigation
Each current provider has at least two years experience with us, and by signing up to working with us they have committed to maintaining the full range of ISO compliant accreditations, policies and other important service-related documentation.
We guarantee that all of our partners represent K2 as we maintain full accountability for their services. In practice this means that during any employee relocation, or when delivering destination services, a lead K2 consultant works closely in detail with the relevant partner to ensure successful delivery to our standards and expected outcomes.
Thanks also to our independence and impartiality, we can drive cost efficiencies and increase service levels to your relocating employees and business. Because we don’t hold any reciprocal agreements with partners we can minimise risks and costs by selecting multiple partners and choosing the most capable based on quality, service experience and value for money for the service required.
Our clients
We work with clients around the world of all sizes, from start-ups to multinationals
Big or small, we’re dedicated to delivering the same high level of service to each and every one of them.
By working as an extension of your HR and global mobility teams, we enable you to operate globally, increasing the productivity of both internal departments and relocating employees.
We are proud of our rich, loyal and long-standing relationships with our clients, some spanning more than a decade and our industry-beating client satisfaction rating of 98% stands testimony to this.
We have specialists working across a wide variety of industry sectors that include technology, finance, advertising, media, retail, professional services, logistics, oil & gas, pharmaceuticals and construction.
