Remote Work & Flexible Contract - Relocation Coaching (EMEA)
Hello!
Thanks for checking out our posting the Flexible Relocation Coach (EMEA) position at PerchPeek! We know that finding your next role is as exciting as it can be exhausting. So, with that in mind, we’ve tried to keep our description simple and cliché-free to help you decide if PerchPeek and this role are a good match for you.
What is PerchPeek?
Have you ever relocated? If so, you probably know how overwhelming it can be—immigration hoops, tax implications, housing, shipping, utilities, banking…the list goes on. No matter where in the world you go, relocating is complicated, time-intensive, and stressful. PerchPeek was conceived to change that.
For relocators, our goal is to guide them through every step of their move with a delightful mix of tech, coaching, content, and partnerships which work together to make relocating simpler, faster, and more fun.
For employers, we streamline the entire process of supporting international Mobility into one easy-to-use platform, turning Mobility into a strategic advantage for thriving globally.
Now you know why we’re so passionate about what we do!
Scope of Work
Flexible Relocation Coaches work with PerchPeek to support surges in business volume, provide flexibility for capacity planning, and improve coverage to support relocators across multiple markets and timezones. This role will work within a network of third-party consultants and with PerchPeek’s Network Manager to deliver quality customer experience in line with customer requirements and PerchPeek’s SLAs for quality and productivity.
Previous experience in the Global Mobility or Relocation industry and knowledge of relocation management and/or destination services is helpful, but not essential, as we’ll provide a free training course on how to become a successful Relocation Coach! You’ll also receive paid training on all of our internal systems.

- Building trusted relationships with relocators over the duration of their relocation journey as their main point of contact, delegating tasks when appropriate.
- Communicating with relocators via a) the PerchPeek app and b) through consultative and supportive calls to understand the customer’s needs, explain relocation services, and provide expertise, guidance & support to relocators within your portfolio.
- Handling difficult or complex relocator enquiries or situations, using critical judgement to ensure the best outcomes for your movers, including escalating these as appropriate.
- Providing “the right expertise at the right time” on all aspects of the relocation journey and life in the destination country to equip relocators to integrate successfully to their new location.
- Supporting relocators in understanding and abiding to their company’s relocation policy, including management of their relocation allowances.
- Recommending and coordinating additional relocation services from providers, working within PerchPeek’s Supply Chain. Examples include immigration, tax or shipping providers.

- Process Implementation: supporting the rollout of process improvements by engaging with new processes and tools.
- Appropriately delegating relevant tasks to Relocation Assistants or third-party consultants, monitoring service delivery to ensure all tasks are completed to a high quality within PerchPeek’s delivery SLAs.
- Identifying and managing escalations, delivery issues and inefficiencies appropriately to ensure your deliverables align with service delivery requirements, policies, and expectations.
- Familiarising yourself with PerchPeek’s products and providing guidance to relocators on how they can utilise the Relocator App and its tools and content.
- Advocating for high-quality knowledge capturing and contributing to developing the PerchPeek content library.
- Collaborating with other Relocation Coaches for creative problem-solving and knowledge sharing.

This Might Be a Fit If...
You might be an awesome Relocation Coach if you’ve previously worked as a Customer Success Manager, Concierge, Personal or Executive Assistant, Support or Operations Specialist, or if you’ve worked in industries like travel, hospitality, SaaS startups, or HR.

- Details, Details, Details: every relocation has its nuances, and it’s important to understand, track and translate these into accurate recommendations.
- Adaptability: you are comfortable in ambiguous situations and are confident in working through unknowns and adapting to challenging customer needs or expectations.
- Autonomy & Remote Working: you can thrive in a 100% remote environment without losing personal motivation, initiative, or productivity.
