How can we support you?

Global mobility support helps organizations move talent across borders efficiently, compliantly, and with a strong focus on employee experience. Below are four key areas where a leading consulting firm can provide end‑to‑end support, from strategic planning to day‑to‑day operational execution.

Strategic mobility planning and policy design

A leading consulting firm can design a global mobility strategy that aligns international assignments with business objectives, workforce planning, and cost expectations. Support typically includes defining mobility frameworks, assignment types, and decision criteria for when to relocate, commute, or work remotely across borders. Policies are benchmarked against market practices to balance competitiveness, compliance, and cost control. Particular attention is paid to equity and consistency, so that employees in different locations and grades are treated fairly while still allowing for local flexibility. The firm can also help set up governance models, approval workflows, and key performance indicators to monitor the effectiveness of the mobility program. As a result, global mobility becomes a strategic enabler of growth rather than a purely administrative function.

Immigration, work authorization, and compliance management

Radner supports organizations in navigating complex immigration rules, work permits, and visa processes for employees and their families. Services typically cover end‑to‑end case management, from eligibility assessment and document preparation to filing, tracking, and communication with authorities. Compliance risks are proactively managed through standardized procedures, checklists, and regular monitoring of regulatory changes in all relevant jurisdictions. The consulting team can also help design internal controls, training, and guidance for HR, managers, and assignees to reduce the risk of non‑compliance, fines, or reputational damage. Special focus is placed on short‑term business travel, remote cross‑border work, and frequent flyer populations, which often create hidden immigration exposures. By centralizing and professionalizing immigration management, organizations gain transparency, predictability, and faster turnaround times.

Tax, social security, and compensation structuring

Global mobility support includes comprehensive tax and social security advisory for both the organization and its mobile employees. Experts can design tax‑efficient assignment structures, including tax equalization or tax protection policies, and model the total cost of assignments under different scenarios. Support often covers registration and filing obligations, payroll setup, shadow payroll, and coordination between home and host country tax systems. Radner assists in identifying and managing permanent establishment risks, employer tax obligations, and social security coverage to avoid unexpected liabilities. Employees receive clear guidance on their personal tax situation, obligations, and potential benefits, which reduces anxiety and improves assignment acceptance rates. Through robust planning and ongoing monitoring, organizations can control costs while maintaining full compliance with local and international tax regulations.

End‑to‑end assignee experience and operational support

Global mobility support also focuses on the day‑to‑day experience of employees and their families before, during, and after an international move. A consulting firm can coordinate relocation services such as home search, temporary accommodation, schooling, and settling‑in assistance through vetted local providers. We help design communication journeys, welcome packs, and digital portals so that assignees have a single source of truth for all relevant information and documents. Ongoing case management ensures that questions are answered quickly, issues are escalated appropriately, and key milestones are tracked from offer acceptance to repatriation or localization. Particular emphasis is placed on duty of care, including health, safety, and well‑being support in higher‑risk locations. By integrating operational processes with a strong human focus, the mobility program enhances employee engagement and supports successful, productive assignments.
