When an organisation asks someone to move abroad, it is rarely asking only one person. Partners, children and sometimes wider family come too, and the success of the move often depends on how well they settle. Kaitu for organisations brings our experience of helping families relocate to employers who are moving people between countries.
Who it is for
The service is designed for organisations of different kinds and sizes, including:
- Companies relocating staff to a new office or project abroad.
- Businesses opening in a new country and sending an early team.
- Schools, universities and other institutions bringing in staff from overseas.
- Organisations recruiting international talent who need help to arrive and settle.
Immigration, coordinated
Moving people across borders usually starts with the right to live and work in the destination country. We help organisations plan the immigration side for employees and their families, coordinating with licensed immigration professionals wherever regulated advice is required. Planning early, and in the right order, helps moves happen on time.
Schools and education
For families with children, schooling is often the deciding factor in whether a move is welcomed or resisted. Drawing on our admissions practice, we help families understand the local education system, consider international and local options, and approach applications calmly. For older children, we can also support university planning.
Settling in
A successful relocation continues well after arrival. We help employees and their families with the practical work of settling, such as:
- Preparing and certifying the documents a move requires.
- Understanding housing, healthcare and local registration.
- Getting oriented in a new city and community.
- Practising the language, including through our language exchanges.
One consultant per family
As with all Kaitu clients, each relocating family works with one dedicated consultant. That consultant understands the family's circumstances, coordinates every part of their move and keeps the organisation informed in the way it chooses. For the employee, it means one familiar person to contact. For the organisation, it means a clear, consistent point of coordination.
Working with the organisation
Every organisation has its own policies and priorities, so we shape our support around them. We can support a single important move or a series of relocations, and we work alongside internal people teams and existing providers rather than replacing them. Personal information about employees and their families is handled with care and shared only as agreed.
Learning resources for teams
Kaitu Academy and our events programme can also support organisations. Relocating employees can work through free courses on planning a move, documents, careers abroad and schools, and join webinars and information sessions on topics relevant to their move.
