Graebel establishes EMEA headquarters in London
Relocation service provider, Graebel Companies is to establish EMEA headquarters in London, in response to increasing demand for mobility services throughout Europe.
Establishing regional offices in London
The region and London office will be led by Dale Collins, SCRP, GMS, who was named EMEA managing director, in addition to serving as the company’s chief strategy officer.The London office, which opened two years ago, serves as an account management, advisory services and business development centre, providing European-based clients and companies with access to Graebel senior leaders across multiple talent mobility, mobility strategy and workplace mobility disciplines.In addition, Graebel also has existing regional client service and operations centres in Prague, which opened in 2008; and Dundalk, Ireland, which opened in late 2016.Why choose London?
Graebel designated London as its EMEA headquarters since the city is home to a large concentration of global companies across diverse industries and a strong market for relocation talent.“London is the economic power centre for many multi-national companies who have increasingly mobile employees and a great need to attract, retain and relocate their talent from point A to point B with an inviting experience for everyone,” said Collins. “With our EMEA headquarters in London and our operations centres in Prague and Dundalk, Graebel is well-positioned to further deliver and expand these services across the region.”
