Reinventing Ourselves

At Hilldrup, we understand the unique challenges you face with your employee's mobility requirements. Peggy Smith, SCRP, SGMS, Chief Executive Officer Worldwide ERC, explores a new topic regarding the mobility needs of employees in her article "Compassionate Commuting" in the August 2011 Mobility.

This article reminds me how quickly relocation requirements change in the world of global mobility, causing us to continually reinvent how we as a mobility solutions provider approach changes in order to meet and exceed the needs of our customers.

Hilldrup representatives customized solutions that reduced costs on shipping and short term assignments for a company that has small shipment needs. We continually evaluate and reinvent ourselves to offer the choices and solutions that connect you to your employees' global mobility needs. When a client became global through acquisitions, our team listened and assisted with policy consultation, destination services and expense administration. We answered the needs of another customer that required logistical infrastructure securing a warehouse in Liberia Africa that is currently operating a Food for Peace program.

Let us sit down with you to discuss customizing a relocation policy or reinventing your current policy to create new solutions. Contact your Hilldrup sales representative today.
